Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is commonly measured based on the squared coefficient of correlation [Formula: see text] between the alleles at two loci that are carried by haplotypes. LD can also be estimated as the [Formula: see text] between unphased genotype dosage at two loci when the allele frequencies and inbreeding coefficients at both loci are identical for the parental lines. Here, we...
