The package provides a set of functions whose aim is to
propose 4 methods of QTL detection. HAPimLD is an
interval-mapping method designed for unrelated individuals with
no family information that makes use of linkage disequilibrium.
HAPimLDL is an interval-mapping method for design of half-sib
families. It combines linkage analysis and linkage
disequilibrium. HaploMax is based on an analysis of variance
with a dose haplotype effect. HaploMaxHS is based on an
analysis of variance with a sire effect and a dose haplotype
effect in half-sib family design. Fundings for the package
development were provided to the LDLmapQTL project by the ANR
GENANIMAL program and APIS-GENE.
