On the genetic interpretation of disease data.

PloS one - 28 Jan 2010

Bishop Stephen C, Woolliams John A

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The understanding of host genetic variation in disease resistance increasingly requires the use of field data to obtain sufficient numbers of phenotypes. We introduce concepts necessary for a genetic interpretation of field disease data, for diseases caused by microparasites such as bacteria or viruses. Our focus is on variance component estimation and we introduce epidemiological concepts to...
