Abstract excerpt
Highly accurate and reproducible genotype calling is a key to success of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) since errors introduced by calling algorithms can lead to inflation of false associations between genotype and phenotype. The Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0 is widely utilized and was used in the current GWAS. Birdseed, a genotype-calling algorithm for this chip, is available in two...
