Figure 1

Distribution of LD between SNP pairs in relation to the physical distance between loci (Mb), pooled over all autosomes. The red line shows average LD in each 500 kb sliding window. Grey dots are individual LD estimates plotted again inter-marker distances. Figure 1A shows D' and Figure 1B shows r2. The blue line in Figure 1A shows the theoretical distribution from the Malécot model.
