EnsemblLD Get Ld Variants
Get linkage disequilibrium (LD) data for a variant from the Ensembl REST API. Returns all variants in LD with the query variant in a specified 1000 Genomes population, with r-squared and D' statistics. LD measures the non-random association of alleles at different loci, critical for GWAS interpretation and fine-mapping. Example: rs1042779 in KHV population returns 708 LD partners with r2 and D' values.
