Abstract excerpt
Many binary phenotypes do not follow a classical Mendelian inheritance pattern. Interaction between genetic and environmental factors is thought to contribute to the incomplete penetrance phenomena often observed in these complex binary traits. Several two-locus models for penetrance have been proposed to aid the genetic dissection of binary traits. Such models assume linear genetic effects of both loci in...
