Hierarchical probabilistic models for multiple gene/variant associations based on next-generation sequencing data.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: The identification of genetic variants influencing gene expression (known as expression quantitative trait loci or eQTLs) is important in unravelling the genetic basis of complex traits. Detecting multiple eQTLs simultaneously in a population based on paired DNA-seq and RNA-seq assays employs two competing types of models: models which rely on appropriate transformations of RNA-seq data (and are...
