Abstract excerpt

Goldgar introduced a novel marker-based method for partitioning the variation of a quantitative trait into specific chromosomal regions. Unlike traditional linkage mapping methods, Goldgar's method does not require the estimation of statistical quantities characterizing each locus thought to infl...
