Abstract excerpt
Quality control of markers in genome-wide association studies often includes testing for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). However, this is usually implemented in a homogeneous population without stratifying by sex. Previous work indicates sex-based selection at numerous autosomal loci in cohorts with active recruitment. Sex chromosome sequences can also interfere with autosomal SNPs. These motivate a...
