Optimal two-stage genotyping designs for genome-wide association scans.
The much-anticipated fixed-array, genome-wide SNP genotyping technologies make large-scale genome-wide association scans now possible for large numbers of subjects. In this paper we reconsider the problem (Satagopan and Elston [2003] Genet Epidemiol 25:149-157) of optimizing a two-stage genotyping design to deal with important new issues that are relevant when studies are expanded from candidat...
متن کاملUnveiling the genetic loci for a panicle developmental trait using genome-wide association study in rice
Panicle size has a high correlation with grain yield in rice. There is a bottleneck to identify the additional quantitative trait loci (QTL) for panicle size due to the conventional traits used for QTL mapping. To identify more genetic loci for panicle size, a panicle developmental trait (LNTB, the length from panicle neck-knot to the first primary branch in the rachis) related to panicle size ...
متن کاملGenome Wide Association Studies in Dairy Cattle Using High Density Snp Scans
Use of high density Single Nucleotide Polymorphic (SNP) marker information allows for prediction of genetic merit via genome wide selection and for localization of markers in gene regions of biological interest through Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS). We report on a replicated GWAS in dairy cattle using 1,945 progeny tested bulls genotyped with three high density SNP panels representing ...
متن کاملGenome-wide association scans for idiopathic osteonecrosis of the femoral head in a Korean population
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a multifactorial disease and is associated with genetic predisposition, and exposure to certain risk factors. In particular, idiopathic ONFH in twins and the clustering of cases in families have indicated that genetic factors are involved. However, the majority of cases of ONFH are sporadic and various studies have demonstrated that differences in the...
متن کاملUsing linkage genome scans to improve power of association in genome scans.
Scanning the genome for association between markers and complex diseases typically requires testing hundreds of thousands of genetic polymorphisms. Testing such a large number of hypotheses exacerbates the trade-off between power to detect meaningful associations and the chance of making false discoveries. Even before the full genome is scanned, investigators often favor certain regions on the ...
