Power of direct vs. indirect haplotyping in association studies.

Abstract excerpt

Haplotype analysis is essential to studies of the genetic factors underlying human disease, but requires a large sample size of phase-known data. Recently, directly haplotyping individuals was suggested as a means of maximizing the phase-known data from a sample. Haplotyping, however, is much more labor-intensive than indirectly inferring haplotypes from genotypes (genotyping). This study uses simulations to...
