The problem discussed is that of interpreting LOD scores when multiple markers are tested for linkage with a particular disease locus. Provided the tests are based on independent segregations, both the maximum and the average LOD can be translated into a score that would have the same significance level were it the result of a single test.
所讨论的问题是，当对多个标记进行与特定疾病位点的连锁测试时，如何解读LOD分数。假设测试基于独立分离，那么最大LOD分数和平均LOD分数都可以转化为一个分数，该分数如果是单次测试的结果，将会具有相同的显著性水平。
