Asymptotic theory for gene mapping.
In genetic linkage mapping, the precision of the location estimate depends on both the number of individuals and the number of markers. Convergence rates and limit laws are established for several situations in which the number of markers depends on the sample size. Practical implications of the results are discussed.
