Abstract excerpt
There are two types of linkage information, the allele sharing information and transmission disequilibrium information, that can be extracted from case-parent tetrad families for deriving statistics for test of linkage. By extracting allele sharing information the mean test can be derived. By extracting transmission disequilibrium information the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) can be derived. The power...
