SNP ascertainment bias in population genetic analyses: why it is important, and how to correct it.

BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology - 1 Sept 2013

Lachance Joseph, Tishkoff Sarah A

Abstract excerpt

Whole genome sequencing and SNP genotyping arrays can paint strikingly different pictures of demographic history and natural selection. This is because genotyping arrays contain biased sets of pre-ascertained SNPs. In this short review, we use comparisons between high-coverage whole genome sequen...
