Abstract excerpt
Genotyping data sets may contain errors that, in some instances, lead to false conclusions. Deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in random samples may be indicative of problematic assays. This study has analysed 107,000 genotypes generated by TaqMan, RFLP, sequencing or mass spectrometric methods from 443 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). These SNPs are distributed both within genes and in...
