Likelihood, Bayesian, and MCMC Methods in Quantitative Genetics

Over the last ten years the introduction of computer intensive statistical methods has opened new horizons concerning the probability models that can be fitted to genetic data, the scale of the problems that can be tackled and the nature of the questions that can be posed. In particular, the applica...
