Abstract

The corporation of a linkage disequilibrium parameter, delta, into linkage analysis is illustrated for data from Genetic Analysis Workshop II. Points from a joint likelihood surface are calculated and displayed on a recombination fraction-linkage disequilibrium grid using a simple modification of LIPED. The approach is shown to increase the power of linkage analysis and the power of tests for heterogeneity of linkage for the simulated examples.
