Linkage Disequilibrium and Association Mapping: An Introduction
关键词: linkage disequilibrium association mapping来源: 互联网
The basis for recent developments on the characterization of the linkage-disequilibrium structure of the genome and the application of association mapping to genes for common human diseases is described. Patterns of linkage disequilibrium are now understood, for a number of human populations, in unprecedented detail. This information not only provides a vital resource for the design and execution of powerful association-mapping studies, but opens new avenues of research into the genetic history of human populations and the effects of natural selection, mutation, and recombination on the genomic landscape.
