Abstract excerpt
As custom arrays are cheaper than generic GWAS arrays, larger sample size is achievable for gene discovery. Custom arrays can tag more variants through denser genotyping of SNPs at associated loci, but at the cost of losing genome-wide coverage. Balancing this trade-off is important for maximizing experimental designs. We quantified both the gain in captured SNP-heritability at known candidate regions and the...
