Bayesian 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...
متن کاملTesting for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in samples with related individuals.
When the classical chi(2) goodness-of-fit test for Hardy-Weinberg (HW) equilibrium is used on samples with related individuals, the type I error can be greatly inflated. In particular the test is inappropriate in population isolates where the individuals are related through multiple lines of descent. In this article, we propose a new test for HW (the QL-HW test) suitable for any sample with rel...
متن کاملHardy Weinberg Equilibrium Testing and Interpretation: Focus on infection
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) holds when, in a closed population with random mating and without mutation and natural selection, genotype frequencies at any locus is a simple function of allele frequencies. Testing for HWE is now a common practice in population genetics and genetic association studies of non-communicable diseases; however, it is less-regarded, or sometimes miss-interpreted, i...

متن کاملDistributions of Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test statistics.
It is well established that test statistics and P-values derived from discrete data, such as genetic markers, are also discrete. In most genetic applications, the null distribution for a discrete test statistic is approximated with a continuous distribution, but this approximation may not be reasonable. In some cases using the continuous approximation for the expected null distribution may caus...
