Figure 3

Proportions of informative SNP pairs that display significant LD plotted at various intermarker distances. Data are shown for Brazil (Granada, Plácido de Castro and Porto Velho combined), Cambodia, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. Pairwise physical distances between markers (in kb) were divided into deciles; the average distance within each decile is used to plot values. Note that the proportion of pairs with significant LD decreases with intermarker distance only in Brazil.
