Testing for linkage disequilibrium in genotypic data using the Expectation-Maximization algorithm
We generalize an approach suggested by Hill (Heredity, 33, 229-239, 1974) for testing for significant association among alleles at two loci when only genotype and not haplotype ...
Extensive Genome-wide Linkage Disequilibrium in Cattle
A genome-wide linkage disequilibrium (LD) map was generated using microsatellite genotypes (284 autosomal microsatellite loci) of 581 gametes sampled from the dutch black-and-wh...
Patterns of DNA sequence polymorphism along chromosome 1 of maize ( <i>Zea mays</i> ssp. <i>mays</i> L.)
We measured sequence diversity in 21 loci distributed along chromosome 1 of maize ( Zea mays ssp. mays L.). For each locus, we sequenced a common sample of 25 individuals repres...
Estimation of admixture and detection of linkage in admixed populations by a Bayesian approach: application to African‐American populations
We describe a novel method for analysis of marker genotype data from admixed populations, based on a hybrid of Bayesian and frequentist approaches in which the posterior distrib...
An E-M algorithm and testing strategy for multiple-locus haplotypes.
This paper gives an expectation maximization (EM) algorithm to obtain allele frequencies, haplotype frequencies, and gametic disequilibrium coefficients for multiple-locus syste...
