摘要
Interest in whole-genome QTL mapping has spurred efforts to reduce the cost of studies now based primarily on individual genotyping. Pooled DNA tests are a possible solution, and understanding how measurement error affects test power could assist in study design. Here we describe pooled tests explicitly optimised for measurement error, including family-based tests robust to population stratification. Our results suggest that pooled DNA whole-genome screens may be feasible with current instruments.
