A population-based latent variable approach for association mapping of quantitative trait loci
ANNALS OF HUMAN GENETICS, 70, 506–523.
author keywords: association mapping; maximum likelihood; haplotype; latent variable; EM algorithm
MeSH headings : Algorithms; Chromosome Mapping; Computer Simulation; Genetics, Population / methods; Humans; Likelihood Functions; Linkage Disequilibrium / genetics; Models, Genetic; Quantitative Trait Loci; Statistics as Topic
TL;DR:
Under a general likelihood framework, an EM‐based algorithm is developed to estimate genetic effects of the QTL and haplotype frequencies of theQTL and markers jointly and provides a joint test for association between a quantitative trait and marker genotypes without requiring adjustment for the multiple testing.

author keywords: forensic science; match probability; DNA profile; relatives
MeSH headings : DNA Fingerprinting / methods; Forensic Genetics; Gene Frequency; Genotype; Humans; Male; Models, Genetic; Monte Carlo Method; Pedigree; Siblings
TL;DR:
This study discusses methods for evaluating the probability that at least one of a set of the suspect's full or half-siblings shares the suspects' DNA profile and presents three such methods: exact calculation, estimation via Monte Carlo simulations, and estimation by means of sandwiches the probability between an upper and a lower bound.

MeSH headings : Chi-Square Distribution; Chromosome Mapping; Evolution, Molecular; Genetic Variation; Humans; Quantitative Trait Loci; Transcription, Genetic
TL;DR:
Several studies imply pervasive non-additivity of transcription, transgressive segregation and epistasis, and future studies will soon document the extent of genotype-environment interaction and population structure at the transcriptional level.

A model for detecting epistasis in organisms with a free‐living haploid stage in their life cycles is developed and it is shown that epistasis is indicated by greater variance among families of haploid progeny derived from individual diploids than among clonally replicated haploid sibs from the same sporophyte.

EFFECT OF MATING STRUCTURE ON VARIATION IN INBREEDING
THEORETICAL POPULATION BIOLOGY, 18(3), 396–429.
TL;DR:
An analysis is made of the variation among individuals in finite populations of the proportion of their genes which are identical by descent, and the coefficient of variation in mean heterozygosity over the genome is related to that in nonidentity.

INFERENCES ABOUT LINKAGE DISEQUILIBRIUM
BIOMETRICS, 35(1), 235–254.
TL;DR:
General use of Burrows' composite measure of linkage disequilibrium, whether or not random union of gametes is an appropriate assumption, is recommended and attention is given to small samples, where the non-normality of gene frequencies will have greatest effect on methods of inference based on normal theory.

BEHAVIOR OF PAIRS OF LOCI IN FINITE MONOECIOUS POPULATIONS
THEORETICAL POPULATION BIOLOGY, 6(3), 323–354.
MeSH headings : Genetics, Population; Mathematics; Models, Biological
TL;DR:
Transition equations are established for descent measures for pairs of loci in finite randomly mating monoecious populations, and three quadrigenic moments are evaluated, including the variance of the linkage disequilibrium.
