Correlations among LD statistics in unrelated CEPH individuals

	D'	Wn	D' *	Wn*
D'	1.000
Wn	0.919	1.000
D' *	0.586	0.480	1.000
Wn*	0.643	0.722	0.395	1.000

Wn The Wn statistic computed directly from the known haplotype frequencies, which is equivalent to Cramer's V computed on the 2×2 table for the haplotype data.

D' The D' statistic computed directly from the known haplotype frequencies.

Wn* Cramer's V computed on the 2×2 table created from the genotype (presence/absence) data.

D' * Dprime computed on the 2×2 table created from the genotype (presence/absence) data.

The absolute value of Cramer's V was used to reflect the (0, 1) range for the D' statistics.
