Abstract
Assessing genome-wide statistical significance is an important issue in genetic studies. We describe a new resampling approach for determining the appropriate thresholds for statistical significance. Our simulation results demonstrate that the proposed approach accurately controls the genome-wide type I error rate even under the large p small n situations.Keywords: experimental cross; genome-wide statistical significance; quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping; resampling method
