Identifying variants that contribute to linkage for dichotomous and quantitative traits in extended pedigrees

Compared to genome-wide association analysis, linkage analysis is less influenced by allelic heterogeneity. The use of linkage information in large families should provide a great opportunity to identify less frequent variants. We perform a linkage scan for both dichotomous and quantitative traits i...
