Division of linkage disequilibrium between absolute linkage disequilibrium and linkage equilibrium [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Genetics, 2005
Linkage disequilibrium is the association between alleles in the allele distributions across linked loci and is intermediate in character between the dependence and the independence of allele distribution. This ambivalence makes linkage disequilibrium difficult to understand and to treat mathematically.

Genomic signatures of population decline in the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Population genomic features such as nucleotide diversity and linkage disequilibrium are expected to be strongly shaped by changes in population size, and might therefore be useful for monitoring the success of a control campaign.

MIDAS: software for analysis and visualisation of interallelic disequilibrium between multiallelic markers

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2006

Whole genome linkage disequilibrium maps in cattle

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2007
Background Bovine whole genome linkage disequilibrium maps were constructed for eight breeds of cattle. These data provide fundamental information concerning bovine genome organization which will allow the design of studies to associate genetic variation

A linkage disequilibrium-based approach to selecting disease-associated rare variants.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Rare variants have increasingly been cited as major contributors in the disease etiology of several complex disorders. Recently, several approaches have been proposed for analyzing the association of rare variants with disease.

Bayesian estimates of linkage disequilibrium

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2007
Background The maximum likelihood estimator of D' – a standard measure of linkage disequilibrium – is biased toward disequilibrium, and the bias is particularly evident in small samples and rare haplotypes.

Short communication: Characterization of the genome-wide linkage disequilibrium in 2 divergent selection lines of dairy cows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The objective of this study was to describe results of a genome-wide map of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and assess the linkage disequilibrium (LD) level in 2 divergent selection lines of dairy cows. DNA extracted from 299 Holstein cows was used

Linkage disequilibrium fine mapping of quantitative trait loci: A simulation study

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2003
Recently, the use of linkage disequilibrium (LD) to locate genes which affect quantitative traits (QTL) has received an increasing interest, but the plausibility of fine mapping using linkage disequilibrium techniques for QTL has not been well studied ...
