Application of homozygosity haplotype analysis to genetic mapping with high-density SNP genotype data.
BACKGROUND: In families segregating a monogenic genetic disorder with a single disease gene introduction, patients share a mutation-carrying chromosomal interval with identity-by-descent (IBD). Such a shared chromosomal interval or haplotype, surrounding the actual pathogenic mutation, is typically...
