The transmission/disequilibrium test: history, subdivision, and admixture.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Aug 1995

Ewens W J, Spielman R S

Abstract excerpt

Disease association with a genetic marker is often taken as a preliminary indication of linkage with disease susceptibility. However, population subdivision and admixture may lead to disease association even in the absence of linkage. In a previous paper, we described a test for linkage (and linkage disequilibrium) between a genetic marker and disease susceptibility; linkage is detected by this test only if...
