    LD pattern for ALOX15. A, ALOX15 LD pattern in the SLSJ familial sample. B, ALOX15 LD pattern in the CAPPS cohort. C, ALOX15 LD pattern in the SAGE cohort. D, ALOX15 LD pattern in the Busselton cohort

    LD pattern for ALOX15. A, ALOX15 LD pattern in the SLSJ familial sample. B, ALOX15 LD pattern in the CAPPS cohort. C, ALOX15 LD pattern in the SAGE cohort. D, ALOX15 LD pattern in the Busselton cohort. The location of each tested TagSNP along the chromosome is indicated in the upper part of the figure. The number in each diamond indicates the magnitude of LD (D′) as a percentage between respective pairs of SNPs. The strength of LD is depicted by progression of color: the color moves from red to white as D′ runs from 1 to 0.
