The linkage method: a novel approach for SNP detection and haplotype reconstruction from a single diploid individual using next-generation sequence data.

Abstract excerpt

When we sequence a diploid individual, the output actually comprises two genomes: one from the paternal parent and the other from the maternal parent. In this study, we introduce a novel heuristic algorithm for distinguishing single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the two parents and phasing them into haplotypes. The algorithm is unique because it simultaneously performs SNP calling and haplotype phasing....
