Abstract excerpt
Detecting interacting loci pairs has been instrumental to understand disease etiology when single locus associations do not fully account for the underlying heritability. However, the number of loci to test is prohibitively large. Epistasis test prioritization algorithms rank likely epistatic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) pairs to limit the number of statistical tests. Potpourri detects epistatic SNP pairs...
