Measures of disease-SNP
linkage in families
family studies: some variant of transmission
disequilibrium test:
look at single heterozygous parent-sib trios and see
whether affected sib pairs are more likely to share
one identical-by-descent parental allele than not
(ASP) or
whether a heterozygous parent is more likely to
transmit one particular allele to his affected child
than the other
