Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: With the beginning of the era of genome-wide association studies methods to obtain 'in silico' genotypes have gained importance. In this context, an evaluation of genome-wide power levels of current marker panels and the power gain achievable with imputed genotypes are of high interest. METHODS: Power for single-marker analysis of imputed genotypes is evaluated via a simulation study based on HapMap...
