Performed on 52 haplotypes observed in 26 unrelated Caucasian families.

*

Maximum likelihood of linkage disequilibrium. D = h − pq, where p and q are the frequencies of the rare alleles for the two loci analyzed and h is the frequency of the haplotype with the rare alleles at both loci.

Percentage of D maximum value at the given allele frequencies [Dm = p(1 − q)].

The standardized value of D is DxNp(1p)q(1q),whose square is asymptomatically distributed as a χ2random variable on 1 df. N is the total number of haplotypes used to determine the allelic frequencies of p and q.
