Identifying rare variants with optimal depth of coverage and cost-effective overlapping pool sequencing.

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide association studies have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with complex diseases although most variants identified so far explain only a small proportion of heritability, suggesting that rare variants are responsible for missing heritability. Identification of rare variants through large-scale resequencing becomes increasing important but still prohibitively expensive despite the...
