Multivariate quantitative genetic analyses in hypertensive sibships reveal that pleiotropy contributes to the additive genetic variation in HDL-C, triglycerides, and LDL particle size. These findings provide the rationale for multivariate linkage analyses to identify novel genetic loci with pleiotropic effects on the traits.
