Whole genome sequences are required to fully resolve the linkage disequilibrium structure of human populations
BACKGROUND: An understanding of linkage disequilibrium (LD) structures in the human genome underpins much of medical genetics and provides a basis for disease gene mapping and investigating biological mechanisms such as recombination and selection. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) provides the opportun...
