dear net,
a colleague of mine wants to do some linkage. he, as i, am familiar with
LINKAGE but no other packages. he has a number of non-CEPH like families
with up to 12 loci typed for sdome families and wants to map a couple of
markers along this part of the map. he asked me whether LINKAGE was the
best tool, (i said no), and if not what was. i thought about MAPMAKER as
i have heard nice things about it but do not have any actual experience of
it myself. also i think someone said something nice about CRI-MAP. does
the net have any opinions on this ? all the data is in LINKAGE format, so
would any data entry be needed for these packages ? we're not talking about
too many individuals, but it is more than 100 i think.
many thanks for any advice...
