摘要
利用连锁不平衡理论 ,人类遗传学家已能把影响人类疾病的质量基因定位在小至 1cM区域内 ,有些基因已被克隆出来。罗泽伟等进一步发展统计分析方法检测及估算分子标记与QTL之间的连锁不平衡系数 ,从而提出了人类复杂遗传病高解析度基因定位的理论策略。以此为基础 ,进一步探讨了供试群体在双亲基因频率存在差异时检测QTL和检测QTL互作的方法 ,给出了有关的理论结果。
Some genes controlling human diseases have been located on the regions less than 1 cM using linkage disequilibrium, and a few of them have been cloned. Z. W. Luo developed a method that can detect and estimate the coefficient of linkage disequilibrium between a marker locus and quantitative trait locus (QTL), and raised the theoretical strategies for high resolution mapping of complex genetic disorders in humans. Based on the data mentioned above, a method for linkage test between a marker locus and QTL was set up, and a method for linkage test between two marker loci and epistatic QTL was suggested for the first time.
