Abstract excerpt
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex locus has shaped a framework for evolutionary processes because of the dense clustering and strong linkage disequilibrium (LD) of polymorphic genes. Although the landscape of LD among conventional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has been described, the data on the lineage of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) haplotype are limited to pairwise comparisons of...
