The Program Package MAN, written in Visual C++, is intended to perform pedigree analysis of quantitative traits and genetic markers on human (!) pedigrees of practically any structure, having no consanguinity loops.
Besides direct procedures of the analysis, the package contains the means, allowing to edit in various ways the initial data, including adjustment and construction of new derived traits. There are also a number of graphical options to present pedigree structures, trait scatter plots and results of analysis.
The simulation options enable to estimate the power of the analyses for samples of definite structure and size and construct the null-distributions for cases, when the appropriate distribution is not known or deviates from asymptotic one.
The MAN software is based on the methodology and algorithms developed by E.Ginsburg and I.Malkin.
