Dear friends - a couple of papers in PNAS (lastly:framework for making better predictions by directly estimating variables' predictivity, Lo et al PNAS 2016; 113:14277-14282) have focused interest on mapping complex traits to multiple loci spread all over the genome. I have been around on the relevant taskview(s) I hope but fail to see that the backward haplotype transmission association algorithm (BHTA) first described by the authors in Hum Hered 2002; 53: 197-215. I wonder whether the algorithm has been implemented in R - primarily I ask since I fail to understand exactly how the algorithm works and thought R code would help there.

All best wishes
