Linkage disequilibrium decay and haplotype block structure in the pig.
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) may reveal much about domestication and breed history. An investigation was conducted, to analyze the extent of LD, haploblock partitioning, and haplotype diversity within haploblocks across several pig breeds from China and Europe and in European wild boar. In total, 371 single-nucleotide-polymorphisms located in three genomic regions were genotyped. The extent of L...
متن کاملMultipoint linkage disequilibrium mapping using multilocus allele frequency data.
This paper describes a likelihood based fine scale linkage disequilibrium mapping method for estimating the position of a disease predisposing gene relative to a battery of typed marker loci. The method uses multilocus allele frequency data from a sample of unrelated diseased individuals and from a sample of unrelated control individuals, that is, a case and control type design. This type of da...
متن کاملHaplotype information and linkage disequilibrium mapping for single nucleotide polymorphisms.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the human genome have become an increasingly popular topic in that their analyses promise to be a key step toward personalized medicine. We investigate two related questions, how much the haplotype information contributes to linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping and whether an in silico haplotype construction preceding the LD analysis can help. For disease gene ...
متن کاملEfficient mining of haplotype patterns for linkage disequilibrium mapping.
Effective identification of disease-causing gene locations can have significant impact on patient management decisions that will ultimately increase survival rates and improve the overall quality of health care. Linkage disequilibrium mapping is the process of finding disease gene locations through comparisons of haplotype frequencies between disease chromosomes and normal chromosomes. This wor...
متن کاملHaplotype-based linkage disequilibrium mapping via direct data mining
MOTIVATION With the availability of large-scale, high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism markers and information on haplotype structures and frequencies, a great challenge is how to take advantage of haplotype information in the association mapping of complex diseases in case-control studies. RESULTS We present a novel approach for association mapping based on directly mining haplotypes (...
