摘要
We have generated the program easyLINKAGE that combines automated setup and performance of linkage analyses and simulation under an easy to handle graphical user interface for Microsoft Windows 2000/XP and standard UNIX systems. The program package supports two-point linkage analyses (FastLink v4.1 and SPLink v1.09), multi-point linkage analyses [GENEHUNTER v2.1, GENEHUNTER-PLUS with the emendation by Kong and Cox v1.2 (allele sharing modelling)] and the simulation package SLINK v2.65, and provides genome-wide as well as chromosomal postscript plots of LOD scores, NPL scores, P-values and other parameters.
