Overview of linkage analysis in complex traits
Abstract
The goal of this unit is to instruct the reader on the general approaches now available for mapping complex disease. The term complex genetic disease refers to a trait phenotype with an unknown mode of inheritance. The goal of this unit is to instruct the reader on the general approaches now available for mapping complex disease.
