=== Running EMMAX with dosages ===
 
=== Running EMMAX with dosages ===
 
If you add -Z option, it will accept .tped file format, where each individual is represented as one dosage value (ranging from 0 to 2), instead of two genotype columns, (which is one of the standard PLINK dosage format). You will be able to run EMMAX with this model. But when creating the kinship matrix, you will not be able to use dosage-based genotypes.

== Frequently asked Questions ==
 +
 +
=== Effect allele ==
 +
Q. Which allele is effect allele?
 +
A. EMMAX simply follows the encoding scheme of .tped file in additive model. So whichever allele encoded as 1 in the .tped file, it will be the effect allele (usually the major allele)
    
=== Support for VCF format and Gene-level Burden Test ===
 
=== Support for VCF format and Gene-level Burden Test ===
Use [[EPACTS]] software pipeline for running EMMAX with VCF files, including the implementations of gene-level burden tests.
+
Q. Is there a version supporting VCF format and gene-level burden test?
 +
A. Use [[EPACTS]] software pipeline for running EMMAX with VCF files, including the implementations of gene-level burden tests.
