Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies of complex hereditary disorders require for their mapping the determination of genotypes at several hundred polymorphic loci in several hundred families. Because only a minority of markers are expected to show linkage and association in family data, a simple screen of genetic markers to identify those showing linkage in pooled DNA samples can greatly facilitate gene identification. All studies...
