Complex genetic traits are often characterized by multiple quantitative phenotypes. Because values of such phenotypes vary over time, it is thought that analyses longitudinal data on the may lead to increased power in detecting association. In this paper, we extend a transmission-based association test applying quasi-likelihood has been developed us framework and carry out genome-wide analysis triglyceride levels based provided GAW20. We consider different phenotype definitions...
Background The Transmission Disequilibrium Test (TDT) is a well established family-based test for genetic association. advantage of TDT over population-based association studies test, which protected against population stratification, and hence, an finding can be attributed to the presence linkage. Quantitative traits (QT) are more informative on within-genotype variability statistical tests identifying genes based such tend powerful compared binary or qualitative traits. trio design (two...
