title: GSMA: software implementation of the genome search meta-analysis method.
abstract: Meta-analysis can be used to pool results of genome-wide linkage scans. This is of great value in complex diseases, where replication of linked regions occurs infrequently. The genome search meta-analysis (GSMA) method is widely used for this analysis, and a computer program is now available to implement the GSMA.
