Testing Hypotheses about Linkage Disequilibrium with Multiple Alleles.
For loci with multiple alleles, hypotheses about linkage disequilibrium may be tested on the complete set of gametic data, or on various collapsed sets of data. Collapsing data into a few alleles at each locus can change the power of the tests, as implied in a recent paper by Zouros, Golding and Mackay (1977). We show that the nature of such changes can be found from properties of the noncentra...
متن کاملCorrelation-based inference for linkage disequilibrium with multiple alleles.
The correlation between alleles at a pair of genetic loci is a measure of linkage disequilibrium. The square of the sample correlation multiplied by sample size provides the usual test statistic for the hypothesis of no disequilibrium for loci with two alleles and this relation has proved useful for study design and marker selection. Nevertheless, this relation holds only in a diallelic case, a...
متن کاملTesting linkage disequilibrium in sibships.
We describe the use of multivariate regression for testing allelic association in the presence of linkage, using marker genotype data from sibships. The test is valid, provided that the correct mean structure is modeled but does not require the correlation structure within families to be specified. The test can be implemented using standard statistical software such as the SAS programming langu...
متن کاملTesting fuzzy hypotheses with vague data
The problem of testing fuzzy hypotheses in the presence of vague data is considered. A new method based on the necessity index of strict dominance (NSD) is suggested. An example hoe to apply the proposed test in statistical quality control is shown.
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium mapping of Arabidopsis CRY2 flowering time alleles.
The selfing plant Arabidopsis thaliana has been proposed to be well suited for linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping as a means of identifying genes underlying natural trait variation. Here we apply LD mapping to examine haplotype variation in the genomic region of the photoperiod receptor CRYPTOCHROME2 and associated flowering time variation. CRY2 DNA sequences reveal strong LD and the existence...
