Abstract excerpt
Genotype imputation is potentially a zero-cost method for bridging gaps in coverage and power between genotyping platforms. Here, we quantify these gains in power and coverage by using 1,376 population controls that are from the 1958 British Birth Cohort and were genotyped by the Wellcome Trust Case-Control Consortium with the Illumina HumanHap 550 and Affymetrix SNP Array 5.0 platforms. Approximately 50% of...
