Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genomic information allows population relatedness to be inferred and selected genes to be identified. Single nucleotide polymorphism microarray (SNP-chip) data, a proxy for genome composition, contains patterns in allele order and proportion. These patterns can be quantified by compression efficiency (CE). In principle, the composition of an entire genome can be represented by a CE number quantifying...
