Linkage disequilibrium is the association between alleles in the allele distributions across linked loci and is intermediate in character between the dependence and the independence of allele ...

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is the nonrandom association of alleles at different sites. Recent studies have proposed that patterns of LD in the human genome can be summarized by a series of discrete ...

The nonrandom association between different genes, termed linkage disequilibrium (LD), provides a powerful tool for high-resolution mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) underlying complex traits.

Thinking about it today, I realized there is a “Basic Concept” that I think I should touch upon, and that is linkage disequilibrium (LD). Notice the wiki link? I do that whenever I mention LD because ...

A novel iLDS statistic uncovers adaptive gene sweeps in gut bacteria, highlighting evolutionary responses to modern diets and enhancing microbiome studies.
