## Abstract We studied the feasibility of a novel approach to localize breast cancer susceptibility genes, using a lowโdensity genomeโwide panel of singleโnucleotide polymorphisms and taking advantage of large regions of linkage disequilibrium (LD) flanking Jewish disease genes in highโrisk cases.
## Abstract Estimates of relatedness have several applications such as the identification of relatives or in identifying disease related genes through identity by descent (IBD) mapping. Here we present a new method for identifying IBD tracts among individuals from genomeโwide single nucleotide poly
