Extent of haplotype homogeneity observed in HbC, HbS and HbA chromosomes analysed.

<p><a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0034565#pone-0034565-g002" target="_blank">Figure 2</a> Illustrates of the extent of haplotype homogeneity in the haplotypes observed in HbC, HbS and HbA chromosomes in the study. The chromosomes are represented on the Y axis and 51 SNPs analysed in a 2 Mb region across the HbS locus represented on the X axis. For each of the 51 markers, major and minor alleles are coded orange and blue respectively. The 51 markers are arranged according to their position in the β globin gene region.
