Abstract excerpt
Case-control studies compare marker-allele distributions in affected and unaffected individuals, and significant results suggest linkage but may simply reflect population structure. For markers with m alleles (m > or = 2), a McNemar-like statistic, I, estimates the level of population association between marker and disease loci. To test for linkage after significant case-control tests, within-family tests are...
