Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: When analyzing DNA sequence data of an individual, knowing which nucleotide was inherited from each parent can be beneficial when trying to identify certain types of DNA variants. Mendelian inheritance logic can be used to accurately phase (haplotype) the majority (67-83%) of an individual's heterozygous nucleotide positions when genotypes are available for both parents (trio). However, when all...
