Estimating the rate of gene conversion on human chromosome 21.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Sept 2004

Padhukasahasram Badri, Marjoram Paul, Nordborg Magnus

Abstract excerpt

There is a growing recognition that gene conversion can be an important factor in shaping fine-scale patterns of linkage disequilibrium in the human genome. We devised simple multilocus summary statistics for estimating gene-conversion rates from genomewide polymorphism data sets. In addition to being computationally feasible for very large data sets, these summaries were designed to yield robust estimates of...
