Incorporating additive genetic effects and linkage disequilibrium information to discover gene-environment interactions using BV-LDER-GE [PDF]
Uncovering environmental factors interacting with genetic factors to influence complex traits is important in genetic epidemiology and disease etiology. We introduce BiVariate Linkage-Disequilibrium Eigenvalue Regression for Gene-Environment interactions

THE DIRECTION OF LINKAGE DISEQUILIBRIUM [PDF]
ABSTRACT The previous paper (LANGLEYT,O BARanId KOJIMA 1974) reports that the directional linkage disequilibria, Dw = PABPab-PAbPaB, tend to be negative for data between allozymes and linked to inversions. A and B stand for the two alleles with the greatest frequency in the population. In this paper we show that linkage disequilibrium in

Homozygosity and Linkage Disequilibrium [PDF]
AbstractWe illustrate how homozygosity of haplotypes can be used to measure the level of disequilibrium between two or more markers. An excess of either homozygosity or heterozygosity signals a departure from the gametic phase equilibrium: We describe the specific form of dependence that is associated with high (low) homozygosity and derive various ...

The Lowdown on Linkage Disequilibrium [PDF]
Flowering time varies among Arabidopsis accessions. Some of the genes that contribute to this polygenic trait have been localized using quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, eventually leading to the identification of genetic variants that contribute to observed differences in flowering time ([El-

Visualization of pairwise and multilocus linkage disequilibrium structure using latent forests. [PDF]
Linkage disequilibrium study represents a major issue in statistical genetics as it plays a fundamental role in gene mapping and helps us to learn more about human history.

Linkage Disequilibrium in Domestic Sheep [PDF]
Abstract The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in the number of livestock QTL mapping studies. The next challenge awaiting livestock geneticists is to determine the actual genes responsible for variation of economically important traits.

Linkage Disequilibrium in the Domesticated Pig [PDF]
Abstract This study investigated the extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in two genomic regions (on chromosomes 4 and 7) in five populations of domesticated pigs. LD was measured with D′ and tested for significance with the Fisher exact test.
