Figure 4From: Genome-wide and local pattern of linkage disequilibrium and persistence of phase for 3 Danish pig breedsLocal LD decay rate ( α ̂ ) and LD ( r2) along Chromosome 1 for three breeds. (a) is α ̂ for each sliding window plotted against the physical position (in Mb) of the middle point SNP in this window, and (b) is the expected r 2 ̂ estimated by α ̂ and d = 10 Mb plotted against middle point SNP position (in Mb). The sliding window size N = 100.Back to article page
