Local ancestry transitions modify snp-trait associations.

Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing. Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing - 1 Jan 2018

Fish Alexandra E, Crawford Dana C, Capra John A, Bush William S

Abstract excerpt

Genomic maps of local ancestry identify ancestry transitions - points on a chromosome where recent recombination events in admixed individuals have joined two different ancestral haplotypes. These events bring together alleles that evolved within separate continential populations, providing a unique opportunity to evaluate the joint effect of these alleles on health outcomes. In this work, we evaluate the impact...
