Genome scanning for complex disease genes using the transmission/disequilibrium test and haplotype-based haplotype relative risk.

Abstract excerpt

Two tests for allelic association were applied to a simulated complex disease for the Genetic Analysis Workshop 9. The transmission/disequilibrium test [Spielman et al., 1993] and the haplotype-based haplotype relative risk approach [Terwilliger and Ott, 1992] were used to detect disease-associated alleles in a set of 360 computer-simulated markers located on six chromosomes and genotyped in 200 nuclear families....
