Creates a vector of chi-squared values from the allelic test of association

Description

One degree of freedom Chi-squared test of allelic counts

Usage

chi2(Xa, Y)

Arguments

`Xa`	A matrix of genotype values coded as 0, 1 or 2 for homozygous major, heterozygous, or homozygous minor, respectively. Rows are subjects and columns are SNPs. May be created with method as.double.snp.data from the GenABEL package.
`Y`	A vector of disease phenotypes, diseased = 1, non-diseased = 0
