We wish to estimate the incidence for a given trait based on an individual's genotype at one or more SNPs associated with the trait and any available phenotypic data for that individual. Here we describe the methods used to estimate these incidences, first for the case of a single SNP, then for the case of multiple SNPs.

BACKGROUND Iris L. s.l. is one of the most diverse and well-known genera in the Asparagales, with approximately 250-300 circumscribed species and significant economic impact. The taxonomy of the genus has suffered dramatic changes in the last century, particularly in the last decades after the application of molecular techniques. As a result several contrasting systematic arrangements are curre...

PURPOSE The interleukin-23 receptor (IL-23R) has been shown to be associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) in many different populations. This study examined whether IL-23R polymorphisms were associated with susceptibility to this disease in a Chinese Han population. METHODS Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), rs7517847, rs11209032, and rs17375018, were genotyped in 291 AS patient...

Nipa is an abundant, underutilized palm whose major part its fronds. fronds (NF) were, therefore, valorized as a renewable carbon resource for the preparation of advanced magnetic porous (MPC) via simple one-step pyrolysis with FeCl3 addition precursor. Properties obtained material were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms, vibrating sample magneto...
