Linkage disequilibrium in related breeding lines of chickens.
High-density genotyping of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) enables detection of quantitative trait loci (QTL) by linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping using LD between markers and QTL and the subsequent use of this information for marker-assisted selection (MAS). The success of LD mapping and MAS depends on the extent of LD in the populations of interest and the use of associations across ...
متن کاملThe Pattern of Linkage Disequilibrium in Livestock Genome
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is bases of genomic selection, genomic marker imputation, marker assisted selection (MAS), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, parentage testing and whole genome association studies. The Particular alleles at closed loci have a tendency to be co-inherited. In linked loci this pattern leads to association between alleles in population which is known as LD. Two metr...
متن کاملExtent and consistency across generations of linkage disequilibrium in commercial layer chicken breeding populations.
Recent studies report a surprisingly high degree of marker-to-marker linkage disequilibrium (LD) in ruminant livestock populations. This has important implications for QTL mapping and marker-assisted selection. This study evaluated LD between microsatellite markers in a number of breeding populations of layer chickens using the standardized chi-square (chi(2')) measure. The results show appreci...
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium in subdivided populations.
The linkage disequilibrium in a subdivided populaton is shown to be equal to the sum of the average linkage disequilibrium for all subpopulations and the covariance between gene frequencies of the loci concerned. Thus, in a subdivided population the linkage disequilibrium may not be 0 even if the linkage disequilibrium in each subpopulation is 0. If a population is divided into two subpopulatio...
متن کاملLinkage disequilibrium in human populations.
Whereas the human linkage map appears on limited evidence to be constant over populations, maps of linkage disequilibrium (LD) vary among populations that differ in gene history. The greatest difference is between populations of sub-Saharan origin and populations remotely derived from Africa after a major bottleneck that reduced their heterozygosity and altered their Malecot parameters, increas...
