HapIM The package provides a set of functions whose aim is to propose 4 methods of QTL detection. HAPimLD is an interval-mapping method designed for unrelated individuals with no family information that makes use of linkage disequilibrium. HAPimLDL is an interval-mapping method for design of half-sib families. It combines linkage analysis and linkage disequilibrium. HaploMax is based on an analysis of variance with a dose haplotype effect. HaploMaxHS is based on an analysis of variance with a sire effect and a dose haplotype effect in half-sib family design. Fundings for the package development were provided to the LDLmapQTL project by the ANR GENANIMAL program and APIS-GENE. Software Brigitte Mangin <brigitte.mangin@toulouse.inra.fr> S. Dejean, N.
