A haplotype-based framework for group-wise transmission/disequilibrium tests for rare variant association analysis
2015
Computer applications in the biosciences : CABIOS
Results: In this study, we describe a haplotype-based framework for group-wise TDT (gTDT) that is flexible to encompass a variety of genetic models such as additive, dominant and compound heterozygous ...
Transmission/disequilibrium tests (TDT) based on family designs are robust to population stratification and admixture, and therefore provide an effective approach to rare variant association studies to ...

Linkage and association analyses of the UCP3 gene with obesity phenotypes in Caucasian families
2005
Physiological Genomics
In this study, using the quantitative transmission disequilibrium test (QTDT), we assessed linkage and association between the UCP3 gene and obesity phenotypes in a large sample of 1,873 subjects from ...
In haplotype analyses, we also observed evidence of linkage (P ϭ 0.002) and association (P ϭ 0.035) with BMI. ...
Haplotypes can also provide more information for the transmission disequilibrium test analyses. However, one trade off is the increase in the degrees of freedom of the test. ...
