Maximum Range of LD Blocks

Use this feature to specify the maximum distance between a pair of markers. This distance is used to determine whether to compute LD for that pair.

If Markers is selected as the Distance Unit for Defining Maximum Range of LD Blocks, then this distance corresponds to the number of markers separating the pair, not the physical distance between markers. If Location Variable Unit is selected, this range refers to the distance between markers in terms of the variable specified in the Annotation Location Variable field.

Note: By default, this parameter is set to 20.

To Specify the Maximum Range of the LD Blocks:

8

Either type the desired value into the text field, or move the slider to the right or to the left to change the value.

Tip: To change the scale of the slider, right-click on the slider and select Rescale Slider from the pop-up menu. Change the upper and/or lower boundaries in the window that appears, to rescale the slider and click OK.
