In this paper, we discuss several parametric methods applicable to meta-analysis of quantitative trait association and mapping studies, and propose the use of a non-parametric Bayesian model with a Dirichlet process prior (referred to as the DPP model) for QTL meta-analysis.The DPP model relaxes the normality assumption of study-specific
