Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association (GWA) studies are currently one of the most powerful tools in identifying disease-associated genes or variants. In typical GWA studies, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are often used as genetic makers. Therefore, it is critical to estimate the percentage of genetic variations which can be covered by SNPs through linkage disequilibrium (LD). In this study, we use the concept of...
