Background: In population-based studies, it is generally recognized that single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers are not independent. Rather, they are carried by haplotypes, ...
Background: With the completion of the HapMap project, a variety of computational algorithms and tools have been proposed for haplotype inference, tag SNP selection and genome-wid...
Background: Genomewide association studies have resulted in a great many genomic regions that are likely to harbor disease genes. Thorough interrogation of these specific regions ...

A commonly used tool in disease association studies is the search for discrepancies between the haplotype distribution in the case and control populations. In order to find this d...
In the context of disease association studies, haplotype frequencies are usually estimated from genotype data. In order to reduce genotyping costs, one can estimate the haplotype ...
