Linkage disequilibrium clustering‐based approach for association mapping with tightly linked genomewide data

Abstract: Genomewide association studies (GWAS) aim to identify genetic markers strongly associated with quantitative traits by utilizing linkage disequilibrium (LD) between candidate genes and markers. However, because of LD between nearby genetic markers, the standard GWAS approaches typically detect a number of correlated SNPs covering long genomic regions, making corrections for multiple testing overly conservative. Additionally, the high dimensionality of modern GWAS data poses considerable challenges for GWAS proc… Show more

“…It is worth noting that the genetic architecture in association studies is complex, as the total historical variation in the sampled population is included. LD between a given SNP and a causal variant is determined by the history of mutation, recombination and coalescence of lineages, and SNP–trait associations may not decrease monotonically with distance (Li, Kemppainen, Rastas, & Merilä, ; Remington, ).…”

“…While useful as a means of ensuring independence of loci in classical population genetics surveys, LD analysis can also offer insights into genomic architecture and differentiation, even within non‐model species (Baird, ; Barton, ; Kemppainen et al, ). Recent work by Li et al () has explored the potential to augment genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) in model organisms by imputing loci of interest using PCA to reduce complexity in large datasets, followed by linkage network analysis. Here, we demonstrate an independently developed version of such a method as a tool to detect genomic islands of differentiation in wild populations.…”

“…While genomic resources for the three-spined stickleback, including an annotated reference genome (Jones et al 2012), are well-developed, those for the nine-spined stickleback are rather less developed, typically relying on the three-spined stickleback reference genome. The recently published ultra-high density linkage map (Rastas et al 2015;Li et al 2018) and a draft version of the nine-spined stickleback genome based on short-read sequencing technology (Nelson and Cresko 2018) are important developments in this regard. However, short-read technology based draft assemblies are often of limited utility when dealing with fairly large and complex vertebrate genomes.…”
