haplotype block [GENO_0000898]

A sequence feature representing a region of the genome over which there is little evidence for historical recombination, such that sequence alterations it contains are typically co-inherited across generations. A particular haplotype block is defined by the set of sequence alterations it is known to contain, which collectively represent a ‘haplotype’. The boundaries of haplotype blocks are defined in efforts to identify haplotypes that exist in organisms or populations. A haplotype block may span any number of sequence alterations, and may cover small or large chromosomal regions - depending on the number of recombination events that have occurred between the alterations defining the haplotype.
