title: False discoveries in genome scanning.
abstract: Methods of multiple comparisons were applied to linkage analysis in the case of genome scanning. Data for Problem 2A were used. p-Values were calculated for all 440,400 possible tests of linkage. Plots of distribution functions and false discovery rate are shown.
