MaCH: Pedigree with Integer Allele Codes

From Genome Analysis Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

For compatibility with older applications that only accept integer allele codes in pedigree files, MaCH can accept pedigree files that encode bases A, C, G, T as 1, 2, 3, 4. Here is an example:

 <Example of a pedigree file with numerically coded alleles>
 FAM1001   ID1234  0   0   M   1 1   1 2   2 2
 FAM1002   ID5678  0   0   F   1 2   2 2   3 3
 ...
 <End of pedigree file>

The corresponding base-pair coded pedigree would be:

 <Example of a pedigree file with base-pair coded alleles>
 FAM1001   ID1234  0   0   M   A A   A C   C C
 FAM1002   ID5678  0   0   F   A C   C C   G G
 ...
 <End of pedigree file>
