Isolated populations often are considered advantageous for association mapping (7) but some examples have been found in which the extent of linkage disequilibrium is the same in small isolated strong disequilibrium in small populations small, whether disequilibrium will be extensive around disease loci. versus distance, d, between loci on a haplotype. two clusters of haplotypes, one corresponding to low and one with high association. that disequilibrium and physical distance Sample data on linkage disequilibrium (r) and distance (d, in kb) between disease genes and nearby SNP markers Disease gene Population r d x12 shows the observed association values between disease and closest marker loci at of this small sample, it appears quite convincing that increasing population isolation is more or less correlated with increasing association. ./cache/work_ffabvo5cxbfevk6woubxxv23gu.pdf ./txt/work_ffabvo5cxbfevk6woubxxv23gu.txt
