LD analyses for CD44 polymorphisms in populations from the 1000 genomes Phase 3.

The number in each cell represents the r² value, with red, blue, and white cells representing complete LD or high LD values, moderate LD values, and low LD values or no LD between polymorphisms, respectively. Population descriptors are represented in (A) ASW: African ancestry in Southwest USA; (B) CEU: Utah residents with Northern and Western European ancestry; (C) CHB: Han Chinese in Beijing, China; (D) CHS: Southern Han Chinese, China; (E) FIN: Finnish in Finland; (F) GBR: British in England and Scotland; (G) GIH: Gujarati Indians in Houston, Texas; (H) ITU: Indian Telugu in the UK; (I) JPT: Japanese in Tokyo, Japan; (J) TSI: Toscani in Italy. The rs numbers are SNP IDs taken from National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). LD: linkage disequilibrium; SNP: single nucleotide polymorphism.
