  • Genetic drift balanced by mutation and recombination would maintain only low levels of LD, and the expectation of D2 is small even without recombination.

    “Results first obtained in the late 1960s suggested that genetic drift balanced by mutation and recombination would maintain only low levels of LD, and the expectation of D2 is small even if there is no recombination53,54 because the flux of mutations at both loci tends to eliminate most LD.”

    From Linkage disequilibrium--understanding the evolutionary past and mapping the medical future. (2008) · cites this paper as [54]

    The introduction describes a steady state in which drift and recurrent mutation balance, and the Discussion gives an example where linkage disequilibrium between neighboring loci may be unimportant. But the paper also says disequilibrium becomes more important when recombination is very low; it does not establish that E(D²) remains small without recombination or that mutation eliminates most LD in that case. The indexed passages have no page numbers. (LLM, conf=0.83)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
