Combining two-point genetic linkage analyses using mapping functions.

Abstract excerpt

A likelihood ratio statistic is proposed for combining two-point genetic linkage analyses when the two-point analyses are between a trait and a well-defined map of markers. It is assumed that the two-point analyses are independent, as in the case of choosing only the most informative marker per family. The asymptotic distribution of the likelihood ratio statistic is derived under the null hypothesis of no linkage...
