Association with MACH output
After you have performed the imputation, you can directly use MACH output to assess association for quantitative and qualitative traits in unrelated.
You will need the *.ped and *.dat files in Merlin format[1] to specify the disesase status or quantitative trait of interest (indicated with A and T respectively in the dat file).
Then, you can run the association using the following command line:
mach2dat -p myfile.ped -d myfile.dat --infofile myfile.mlinfo --dosefile myfile.mldose
where myfile.mlinfo and myfile.mldose are the MACH output files.
You can also add covariates to the phenotype *ped and *dat files if you want to adjust your test for other variables.
- Please note that mach2dat analyze only unrelated samples. If you input a pedigree with family relationship, those will be ignored.
If you have family data, you can use merlin-offline [2]
