Linkage disequilibrium compared between five populations of domestic sheep.

BMC genetics - 30 Sept 2008

Meadows Jennifer R S, Chan Eva K F, Kijas James W

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The success of genome-wide scans depends on the strength and magnitude of linkage disequilibrium (LD) present within the populations under investigation. High density SNP arrays are currently in development for the sheep genome, however little is known about the behaviour of LD in this livestock species. This study examined the behaviour of LD within five sheep populations using two LD metrics, D' and...
