Figure 3

Snapshot of haplotype block organisation on 17q. Blocks identified by each of the 5 Definitions for the first 3 Mb of the region are depicted. SNPs are shown as triangles according to their relative spacing. Genes in the region are shown in pink (circles denote the start and end points of genes). Haplotype blocks are colour-coded according to the Definition used to characterise them: Definition 1 [16] is in purple; Definition 2 (modification of [16]) is in orange; Definition 3 [24] is in red; Definition 4 (n+1 method) is in blue; Definition 5 (D' high threshold method) is in green. Squares represent the SNPs that fall within the defined blocks and lines extend across each haplotype block. Adjacent and overlapping blocks are depicted in consecutive rows.
