There is great interest in the patterns and extent of linkage disequilibrium (LD) in humans and other species. Characterizing LD is of central importance for gene-mapping studies and can provide insights into the biology of recombination and human demographic history. Here, we review recent developments in this field, including the recently proposed 'haplotype-block' model of LD. We describe some of the recent data in detail and compare the observed patterns to those seen in simulations.
人们对人类和其他物种中的连锁不平衡(LD)模式及程度有着浓厚兴趣。表征连锁不平衡对于基因定位研究至关重要,并且能够为重组生物学和人类人口统计学历史提供见解。在此,我们回顾该领域的最新进展,包括最近提出的连锁不平衡“单倍型块”模型。我们详细描述了一些最新数据,并将观察到的模式与模拟中看到的模式进行比较。
