Abstract excerpt
One of the crucial issues of association studies is the selection of markers. One possible approach would be to select tagging SNPs (tSNPs) according the HapMap information. In this study we present the number of tSNPs required for the association analysis of the entire human genome for all available HapMap population samples: CEPH, Nigerian, Chinese and Japanese. For future association studies, it is also...
