Multitrait fine mapping of quantitative trait loci using combined linkage disequilibria and linkage analysis.
A novel multitrait fine-mapping method is presented. The method is implemented by a model that treats QTL effects as random variables. The covariance matrix of allelic effects is proportional to the IBD matrix, where each element is the probability that a pair of alleles is identical by descent, given marker information and QTL position. These probabilities are calculated on the basis of simila...
متن کاملEstimation of multilocus linkage disequilibria in diploid populations with dominant markers.
Analysis of population structure and organization with DNA-based markers can provide important information regarding the history and evolution of a species. Linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis based on allelic associations between different loci is emerging as a viable tool to unravel the genetic basis of population differentiation. In this article, we derive the EM algorithm to obtain the max...
متن کاملPartitioning, duality, and linkage disequilibria in the Moran model with recombination.
The multilocus Moran model with recombination is considered, which describes the evolution of the genetic composition of a population under recombination and resampling. We investigate a marginal ancestral recombination process, where each site is sampled only in one individual and we do not make any scaling assumptions in the first place. Following the ancestry of these loci backward in time y...
متن کاملLDheatmap: An R Function for Graphical Display of Pairwise Linkage Disequilibria Between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
We describe the R function LDheatmap() which produces a graphical display, as a heat map, of pairwise linkage disequilibrium measurements between single nucleotide polymorphisms within a genomic region. LDheatmap() uses the grid graphics system, an alternative to the traditional R graphics system. The features of the LDheatmap() function and the use of tools from the grid package to modify heat...
