Multipoint and single point non-parametric linkage analysis with imperfect data
Abstract
We used simulation to explore the impact of common data imperfections (i.e., missing parents, genotyping error, map error, and missing genotypes) upon the performance of multipoint and single point linkage analysis in the analyses of linkage data from pairs of siblings affected with an idealized complex trait. The performance of single point and multipoint linkage was similar under an unrealistic best case scenario; however, when four data imperfections were combined, the performance of single point linkage analysis appeared to be superior to multipoint. The absence of parental genotypes in the presence of 1% genotype error led to marked degradation of linkage signal, particularly for multipoint analyses.
