Abstract excerpt
We have developed software and statistical tools for linkage analysis of polygenic diseases. We use type I diabetes mellitus (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, IDDM) as our model system. Two susceptibility loci (IDDM1 on 6p21 and IDDM2 on 11p15) are well established, and recent genome searches suggest the existence of other susceptibility loci. We have implemented CASPAR, a software tool that makes it possible...
