Management, presentation and interpretation of genome scans using GSCANDB

摘要

Motivation: Advances in high-throughput genotyping have made it possible to carry out genome-wide association studies using very high densities of genetic markers. This has led to the problem of the storage, management, quality control, presentation and interpretation of results. In order to achieve a successful outcome, it may be necessary to analyse the data in different ways and compare the results with genome annotations and other genome scans.
