Abstract excerpt
For haplotype analysis of the X chromosome, haplotype-sharing (HS) statistics with sliding windows are defined for males and females separately, which are then combined to a single HS test for the X chromosome. When independent replication samples are not available, the training-testing sets approach is used to validate this procedure and a permutation method is used to obtain its P-value. We applied this method...
