Program report: GENECOUNTING support programs.

摘要

We describe a suite of programs which enhance the usability of GENECOUNTING, a program for estimating haplotype frequencies in unrelated subjects. The programs, called RUNGC, SCANASSOC, COMPGR, SCANGROUP and LDPAIRS, carry out likelihood ratio tests and permutation tests to detect differences in haplotype frequencies between cases and controls,or between predefined groups, and output likely haplotype assignments and tables of linkage disequilibrium statistics between all pairs of markers in a dataset.
