Visualizing Linkage Disequilibrium in R

Posted on 9 Apr, 2015 by Arun Sethuraman

Patterns of Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) across a genome has multiple implications for a population’s ancestral demography. For instance, population bottlenecks predictably result in increased LD, LD between SNP’s in loci under natural selection affect each others rates of adaptive evolution, selfing/inbreeding populations … Continue reading →
