Notice many Chr 2 hits: Linkage disequilibrium limits

The marker D2Mit423
correlates moderately well with a number of Chr 2 transcripts. This is due
to linkage disequilibrium. These correlations are not due to a molecular
interactions other than being close together on a chromosome.But we have circled one transcript,
actinin alpha 2, that has a moderately good correlation (0.59) with
D2Mit423. If we map this gene we expect to find a suggestive QTL that peaks
near D2Mit423
