TagSNP transferability and relative loss of variability prediction from HapMap to an admixed population

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The application of a subset of single nucleotide polymorphisms, the tagSNPs, can be useful in capturing untyped SNPs information in a genomic region. TagSNP transferability from the HapMap dataset to admixed populations is of uncerta...
