Concepts/glossary
- Linkage equilibrium
- Missing heritability: The portion of heritability for a certain trait that is not explained by known genetic variations affectingt that trait.
- Identity by descent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identity_by_descent
- Ascertainment bias: See http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK9792/

- Ortholog:
- Paralog: Genes related by duplication within a genome.
