Abstract excerpt
The use of large pedigrees is an effective design for identifying rare functional variants affecting heritable traits. Cost-effective studies using sequence data can be achieved via pedigree-based genotype imputation in which some subjects are sequenced and missing genotypes are inferred on the remaining subjects. Because of high cost, it is important to carefully prioritize subjects for sequencing. Here, we...
