Abstract
Summary: We present the software implementation of the tree scanning method to detect associations between genetic haplotypes and quantitative traits, utilizing the evolutionary history of the haplotypes, in samples of unrelated individuals. Availability: The program is available free of charge, under the GNU General Public License. A package including C source code, a Makefile, and Windows (DOS) and Macintosh binaries, can be downloaded from http://darwin.uvigo.es Contact:dposada@uvigo.esKeywords
