Ancestry-specific maps of GRCh38 linkage disequilibrium blocks for human genome research

2022-03-07

Abstract excerpt

A map of approximately independent linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks has many uses in statistical genetics. Current publicly available LD block maps are based on sparse recombination maps and are only available for GRCh37 (hg19) and prior genome assemblies. We generated LD blocks in GRCh38 coordinates for African (AFR), East Asian (EAS), European (EUR) and South Asian (SAS) ancestry populations. These new maps co...
