Optimal selection of sib pairs from random samples for linkage analysis of a QTL using the EDAC test.

Behavior genetics - 1 May 1998

Dolan C V, Boomsma D I

Abstract excerpt

Percentages of extremely concordant and extremely discordant sib pairs are calculated that maximize the power to detect a quantitative trait locus (QTL) under a variety of circumstances using the EDAC test. We assume a large fixed number of randomly sampled sib pairs, such as one would hope to find in the large twin registries, and limited resources to genotype a certain number of selected sib pairs. Our aim is...
