| + | The first step for genotype imputation analyses using MaCH is to build a model that relates your dataset to a reference set of haplotypes. This model will include information on the length of haplotype stretches shared between your sample and the reference panel (in a ''.rec'' file) and information on the similarity of marker genotypes between your sample and the reference panel (in a ''.err'' file). The contents of the second file reflect the combined effects of genotyping error and differences in genotyping assays between the two samples. |
