Abstract excerpt
A haplotype-based haplotype relative risk (HHRR) analysis of simulated data for 200 affected offspring and their parents (Genetic Analysis Workshop 9, Problem 1) detected linkage disequilibrium at 2 of 360 marker loci. An additive model was suggested but not proven by haplotypes of affected vs. unaffected offspring. These findings were consistent with the generating model. Affected sib pair analysis failed to...
