Mapping loci influencing blood pressure in the Framingham pedigrees using model-free LOD score analysis of a quantitative trait
This paper presents a method of performing model-free LOD-score based linkage analysis on quantitative traits. It is implemented in the QMFLINK program. The method is used to perform a genome screen on the Framingham Heart Study data. A number of markers that show some support for linkage in our stu...
