Is it chaotic? Chicken Linkage Disequilibrium and quantitative trait loci

2025-09-29

Abstract excerpt

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) underpins genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to map Quantitative Trait Loci Regions (QTLRs). A common yet misled assumption is that the closest sites to a significant marker are the prime candidates as the causative mutation. However, LD blocks are typically fragmented and intermingled. We studied chicken LD of mapped QTLRs for Marek’s Disease in numerous chicken populations. We est...
