## Abstract When a novel genetic trait arises in a population, it introduces a signal in the haplotype distribution of that population. Through recombination that signal's history becomes differentiated from the DNA distant to it, but remains similar to the DNA close by. Fineβscale mapping techniqu
## Abstract We present a novel statistical method for linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping of disease susceptibility loci in caseβcontrol studies. Such studies exploit the statistical correlation or LD that exist between variants physically close along the genome to identify those that correlate wit
