Multilocus analysis of GAW15 NARAC chromosome 18 case-control dataSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand
BMC Proc 1:S11. 2007..This haplotype was located less than 500 base pairs upstream of the CCBE1 gene. The association was not detected using single-marker tests, but could be found using a variety of multilocus tests...
Multilocus association mapping using variable-length Markov chainsSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Auckland 92019, New Zealand
Am J Hum Genet 78:903-13. 2006..I present analyses of two published data sets that show that this approach can have better power than single-marker tests or sliding-window haplotypic tests...
Haplotypic analysis of Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium dataBrian L Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand
Hum Genet 123:273-80. 2008..In addition, we demonstrate that it is possible to simultaneously phase 16,000 individuals genotyped on genome-wide data (450 K markers) using the Beagle software package...
Missing data imputation and haplotype phase inference for genome-wide association studiesSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, 1142, New Zealand
Hum Genet 124:439-50. 2008....
Rapid and accurate haplotype phasing and missing-data inference for whole-genome association studies by use of localized haplotype clusteringSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Am J Hum Genet 81:1084-97. 2007..1 days of computing time, with 99% of masked alleles imputed correctly. Our method is implemented in the Beagle software package, which is freely available...
A unified approach to genotype imputation and haplotype-phase inference for large data sets of trios and unrelated individualsBrian L Browning
Department of Statistics, University of Auckland, Auckland 1142, New Zealand
Am J Hum Genet 84:210-23. 2009..We present a useful measure of imputation accuracy, allelic R(2), and show that this measure can be estimated accurately from posterior genotype probabilities. Our methods are implemented in version 3.0 of the BEAGLE software package...
High-resolution detection of identity by descent in unrelated individualsSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Am J Hum Genet 86:526-39. 2010..We detect HBD in 4.7 individuals per 10,000 on average at a given location. Our methodology is implemented in the freely available BEAGLE software package...
Population structure with localized haplotype clustersSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, University of Auckland, Auckland 1142, New Zealand
Genetics 185:1337-44. 2010..Thus, these new measures of F(ST) and haplotype-cluster diversity provide an important new tool for population genetic analysis of high-density SNP data...
Estimation of pairwise identity by descent from dense genetic marker data in a population sample of haplotypesSharon R Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Auckland 1142, New Zealand
Genetics 178:2123-32. 2008..This enables detection of pairwise IBD between haplotypes from individuals whose most recent common ancestor lived up to 50 generations ago...
A canine model of inherited myopia: familial aggregation of refractive error in labrador retrieversJoanna Black
Department of Optometry and Vision Science, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 49:4784-9. 2008..To determine whether the distribution of naturally occurring myopia in Labrador Retrievers has a genetic component...
Efficient multilocus association testing for whole genome association studies using localized haplotype clusteringBrian L Browning
Department of Statistics, The University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
Genet Epidemiol 31:365-75. 2007....
Case-control single-marker and haplotypic association analysis of pedigree dataSharon R Browning
Genetics Research, GlaxoSmithKline, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709, USA
Genet Epidemiol 28:110-22. 2005..We demonstrate that our method has power at least as great as that of several competing methods, while offering advantages in the ability to handle missing data and perform haplotypic analysis...
