Effect of ignoring genotype-environment interaction on segregation analysis of quantitative traits
L Tiret et al. Genet Epidemiol. 1993.
Abstract
Thirty replicates of 200 nuclear families (6 members each) were generated under three GxE interaction models. Segregation analyses of these data were performed using a regressive model taking into account an interaction effect or not. Results showed that ignoring the GxE interaction markedly decreased the power for accepting a major gene and led to serious bias in parameter estimates.
