Regions on chromosomes 1, 3, and 5 were consistently indicated across the various analyses performed. Follow‐up analyses included stratification for locus heterogeneity and clinical phenotype and studies of gene×gene and gene×environment interaction. The region around D1G024 was most notable, showing strong association and linkage with the trait. We also identified regions D3G043–46 and D5G037–39 by strong linkage and association findings and region D1G001–09 by linkage analysis. A complex statistical interaction was suggested between D1G024, D3G046 and environmental factor 1. This report suggests that traditional methods of analysis can be implemented to analyze and describe the mechanisms that may underlie the more complex genetic disorders.}, number={Suppl.1}, journal={Genetic Epidemiology}, author={Anderson, J.

Case-control studies are more prone to false-positive results caused by inappropriate controls, which can occur if, for example, there is population admixture or stratification. An advantage of family-based tests is that cases and controls are well matched, but parental data may not always be available, especially for late-onset diseases. Three recent family-based tests of association and linkage utilize unaffected siblings as surrogates for untyped parents. In this paper, we propose an extension of one of these tests. We describe and compare the four tests in the context of a complex disease for both biallelic and multiallelic markers, as well as for sibships of different sizes. We also examine the consequences of having some parental data in the sample.}, number={5}, journal={AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN GENETICS}, author={Monks, SA and Kaplan, NL and Weir, BS}, year={1998}, month={Nov}, pages={1507–1516} }
