Abstract excerpt
A plausible explanation for statistical epistasis revealed in genome wide association analyses is the presence of high order linkage disequilibrium (LD) between the genotyped markers tested for interactions and unobserved functional polymorphisms. Based on findings in experimental data, it has been suggested that high order LD might be a common explanation for statistical epistasis inferred between local...
