From the archives (1995): Guidelines for interpreting and reporting linkage results

In 1995, Nature Genetics published a report by Eric Lander and Leonid Kruglyak, recommending clear statistical guidelines for reporting linkage results for complex traits. The paper had an immediate impact, setting the bar for what could or could not be called “significant” in the literature. Although originally focused on human genetic linkage studies, the guidelines set forth by Lander & Kruglyak influenced fields from model organism genetics to plant genetics, and eventually genome-wide association studies (GWAS).
