Chromosome-wide haplotype sharing: a measure integrating recombination information to reconstruct the phylogeny of human populations.
Annals of human genetics - 1 Nov 2011

Abstract excerpt
The vast amount of recombination information in the human genome has long been ignored or deliberately avoided in studies on human population genetic relationships. One reason is that estimation of the recombination parameter from genotyping data is computationally challenging and practically difficult. Here we propose chromosome-wide haplotype sharing (CHS) as a measure of genetic similarity between human...
