I am not understanding the concept of haplotyping in GWAS. I think that we can only make haplotypes in case where we have dense SNPs throughout the genome which are completely in LD or we can make haplotype when we have very less number of SNPs which might be in LD or not. Or haplotyping denotes some other thing in case of GWAS? Thanks,
I would add a link to haplotype wiki page, hapmap and one or two good review articles to complete this fantastic answer :) !
Another good review is Kingsmore et al 2008, Genome-wide association studies: progress and potential for drug discovery and development
Its a good answer. You mean if two SNPs present close or too apart on same strand but their tendency to appear on the same strand in a population is high, then it make a haplotype.
