Abstract excerpt
Scanning of the human genome by use of affected relative pairs and dense sets of highly polymorphic markers or by emerging techniques such as genomic mismatch scanning. (GMS) is making it possible to identify the genetic etiology of a disease through detection of susceptibility loci. We present a general statistical model and test to detect disease genes, using affected relative pairs and either markers or GMS...
