Abstract excerpt
An important proportion of the human genome is organized in regions of high linkage disequilibrium (LD) and low haplotype diversity, referred to as haplotype blocks. Here, we perform a genome-wide screen of haplotype-like blocks presenting just two main haplotypes at a frequency higher than 1%, b...
