Statistical Genetics: Gene Mapping Through Linkage and Association

Editat de Benjamin Neale, Manuel Ferreira, Sarah Medland, Danielle Posthuma
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 dec 2007
Statistical Genetics is an advanced textbook focusing on conducting genome-wide linkage and association analysis in order to identify the genes responsible for complex behaviors and diseases. Starting with an introductory section on statistics and quantitative genetics, it covers both established and new methodologies, providing the genetic and statistical theory on which they are based. Each chapter is written by leading researchers, who give the reader the benefit of their experience with worked examples, study design, and sources of error.
The text can be used in conjunction with an associated website (www.genemapping.org) that provides supplementary material and links to downloadable software.

Descriere

Statistical Genetics focuses on conducting genetic linkage and association analysis in the post-genomic era. It covers established and new methodologies, providing the genetic and statistical theory on which they are based. Worked examples of important methods are given, as well as study design and sources of error.
