Disclosed is a method for determining haplotypes useful for large-scale genetic analysis, within a genomic reference sequence of interest, for a human subpopulation. The method can applied to statistically evaluating the genotypes of subjects for any statistically significant association with a phenotype of interest, such as insulin resistance or coronary artery disease. Thus, also disclosed are a method of detecting a genetic predisposition in a Mexican-American human subject for developing insulin resistance and methods of detecting a lower than normal risk in a Mexican-American human subject for developing insulin resistance or coronary artery disease.
