Abstract excerpt
Imprinting effects can lead to parent-of-origin patterns in complex human diseases. For a diallelic marker locus, Pedigree Parental-Asymmetry Test (PPAT) and its extension MCPPAT using pedigrees allowing for missing genotypes are simple and powerful for detecting imprinting effects. However, these approaches only take affected offspring into consideration, thus not making full use of the data available. In this...
