Abstract excerpt
We have developed a computationally efficient method for multipoint linkage analysis on extended pedigrees for trait models having a two-locus quantitative trait loci (QTL) effect. The method has been implemented in the program, hg_lod, which uses the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to sample realizations of descent patterns conditional on marker data, then calculates the trait likelihood for each...
