Powerful Haplotype-Based Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Tests for Tightly Linked Loci
Recently, there have been many case-control studies proposed to test for association between haplotypes and disease, which require the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) assumption of haplotype frequencies. As such, haplotype inference of unphased genotypes and development of haplotype-based HWE tests are crucial prior to fine mapping. The goodness-of-fit test is a frequently-used method to test ...

متن کاملA Powerful Method for Including Genotype Uncertainty in Tests of Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
The use of posterior probabilities to summarize genotype uncertainty is pervasive across genotype, sequencing and imputation platforms. Prior work in many contexts has shown the utility of incorporating genotype uncertainty (posterior probabilities) in downstream statistical tests. Typical approaches to incorporating genotype uncertainty when testing Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium tend to lack cali...
متن کاملA note on exact tests of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
Deviations from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) can indicate inbreeding, population stratification, and even problems in genotyping. In samples of affected individuals, these deviations can also provide evidence for association. Tests of HWE are commonly performed using a simple chi2 goodness-of-fit test. We show that this chi2 test can have inflated type I error rates, even in relatively larg...
متن کاملBayesian methods for examining Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
Testing for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is ubiquitous and has traditionally been carried out via frequentist approaches. However, the discreteness of the sample space means that uniformity of p-values under the null cannot be assumed, with enumeration of all possible counts, conditional on the minor allele count, offering a computationally expensive way of p-value calibration. In addition, the i...
