Abstract
A newly developed nonparametric multipoint linkage analysis (NPL) by K ruglyak et al. [1996] was applied to the data set from the Johns Hopki ns Bipolar Study available through the GAW10 workshop. Our results fro m GENEHUNTER do not support the analyses of Stine et al. [1995]. Some possible extensions to incorporate unaffecteds are also discussed. (C) 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
