linkage disequilibrium
23 November 2003

Patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD) reveal the action of evolutionary processes and provide crucial information for association mapping of disease genes.
A complete description of human genetic variation requires more than just properties of isolated genes, microsatellites or SNPs.
How these vary simultaneously within a part or whole chromosome requires statistics of correlation between the variation at different positions, and these are usually described by patterns of linkage (...)
