Structural Variant Imputation in Samoans Using a Population-Specific Reference Panel

2026-07-10

Abstract excerpt

Structural variants (SVs) are often excluded from genetic research because they are difficult to call, but they can have substantial effects on phenotypic traits. SVs have not previously been characterized in Samoans, an understudied population with a high burden of complex diseases. Using short-read whole genome sequencing data, we called SVs in 1,276 Samoans and created a Samoan-specific imputation panel inclusi...
