A fast-linear mixed model for genome-wide haplotype association analysis: application to agronomic traits in maize

Abstract Background Haplotypes combine the effects of several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with high linkage disequilibrium, which benefit the genome-wide association analysis (GWAS). In the haplotype association analysis, both haplotype alleles and blocks are tested. Haplotype alleles can...
