Which of the following statements is true about linkage disequilibrium?
New alleles are born into a population in LE with the surrounding loci
Genetic hitchhiking results from LD between surrounding loci and a locus under strong selection
Loci in LE in two different populations with different allele frequencies will remain in LE when the two populations completely merge into a single population.
The greater the selection on a locus, the smaller the haplotype block maintained around it
D= 0.15 indicates that two loci are in greater LD thanD= -0.23
