This was particularly evident by the Bayesian approach identifying a single marker whereas the SSR approach sometimes identified a cluster of adjacent significant associations for the same location (e.g. chromosome 20 at ~10 MB for cull cow carcass weight); this a consequence of linkage disequilibrium in the genome.
Counts were also taken from the adjacent visual association cortex area Te2, which has been implicated in visual novelty detection (Ho et al., 2011; Wan et al., 1999; Zhu, McCabe, Aggleton, & Brown, 1996).
There are hot and cold spots for LD across the chromosome with both random association among adjacent regions and nonrandom associations between distant sites, a pattern previously observed by Schaeffer et al. (2003).
We created LD plots using marker-pair associations of adjacent SNPs within a chromosome, adjacent SNPs within a haplotype block, and adjacent SNPs within genes.
Inspection of the loci suggested that they could be characterized based on clustering (support from adjacent SNPs for association with AMD), Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE), and minor allele frequency.
Muscle functional MRI is being used to assess (compensatory) muscular recruitment patterns within and between adjacent muscles in association with pathology or after specific exercises.
Objective techniques for measuring physical activity/movement, such as accelerometers, provide ideal opportunities to explore compensation as data are date and time-stamped [ 11], enabling exploration of associations between adjacent periods of the day (within-days) and adjacent days (between-days).
In this study, we sought first to test the idea that features of individual SNPs associated with disease and clustering of nearby significant SNPs (i.e., support for association from adjacent SNPs) would be useful in selecting loci from genetic association studies for replication [4].
The region is organized in such a way that the zone is comprised of several adjacent districts, and peasant associations (PAs) are the smallest governmental administrative sections.
In the crystal lattice of UNC-45, two prominent crystal contacts can be discerned that lead to either a symmetric dimer, which is stabilized by juxtaposed central domains, or a continuous protein filament resulting from lateral associations of adjacent subunits.
