Are rare variants really independent?

Genetic epidemiology - 1 May 2017

Turkmen Asuman, Lin Shili

Abstract excerpt

Recent advances in genotyping with high-density markers allow researchers access to genomic variants including rare ones. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is widely used to provide insight into evolutionary history. It is also the basis for association mapping in humans and other species. Better understanding of the genomic LD structure may lead to better-informed statistical tests that can improve the power of...
