LDlinkR: An R Package for Rapidly Calculating Linkage Disequilibrium Statistics in Diverse Populations

Genomic research involving human genetics and evolutionary biology relies heavily on linkage disequilibrium (LD) to investigate population-specific genetic structure, functionally map regions of disease susceptibility and uncover evolutionary history. Interactive and powerful tools are needed to cal...
