Efficient Haplotype Block Partitioning and Tag SNP Selection Algorithms under Various Constraints
Patterns of linkage disequilibrium plays a central role in genome-wide association studies aimed at identifying genetic variation responsible for common human diseases. These patterns in human chromosomes show a block-like structure, and regions of high linkage disequilibrium are called haplotype bl...
