Statistical Genomics: Linkage, Mapping, and QTL Analysis


Add your own review!

Overview

The most complete coverage of statistical methods used for genetic mapping in animals and plants. This text/reference provides a complete picture of genome statistics. It contains lots of basic information on the use of statistics in genomics, such as how to determine a sample size or carry out a hypothesis test. This volume is different from other statistics books on genetics as it contains a mixture of discrete and continuous variables and larger amounts of data, describes the need for bioinformatics, and is computationally intensive.

Reviews

"""The book deals with one of the most active areas of genomic science It is a very comprehensive treatment of the subject from a practical and theoretical perspective. This book is significantly ahead of what is currently published."" Ronald Sederoff North Carolina State University ""First, this book is extremely timely as genomics and gene mapping is an area undergoing exponential growth. Second, the coverage is indeed excellent. Third, Dr. Liu is extremely well qualified to write this book he knows both the underlying theory as well as problems in applying it in real settings."" Bruce Walsh University of Arizona"
