Abstract excerpt
Susceptibility to a disease may involve the interactive effect of two genes. What conclusions will be drawn by segregation analysis in such a case? To answer this question, we considered a set of two-locus models and the corresponding exact distribution for 300 families. We investigated the conclusions and parameter estimations obtained for this sample, by comparing the likelihood expectations of the unified...
