QTDT

QTDT

QTDT is a tool for the analysis of linkage disequilibrium (LD) of Quantitative and Discrete Traits. The QTDT has algorithms for exact p-values by permutation although when testing multiple linked polymorphisms, tests described by Allison (TDTQ5, 1997), Rabinowitz (1997), Monks et al. (1998), Fulker et al. (1999), and association models: Abecasis (2000), the models of Allison (1997, TDTQ5), Rabinowitz (1997), Monks (1998) and Fulker (2000).
