Enhanced genetic maps from family-based disease studies: population-specific comparisons

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Accurate genetic maps are required for successful and efficient linkage mapping of disease genes. However, most available genome-wide genetic maps were built using only small collections of pedigrees, and therefore have large samplin...
