H3ABioNet 2018 Genotyping Chip Data Analysis and GWAS lecture series - Lecture 3
Genotype calling from Illumina files
Date: 27 August 2018 @ 15:00 - 16:00
Timezone: Central African Time (CAT)
Genotype calling from Illumina files
The third of a series of seven H3ABioNet online lectures for Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) will introduce genotyping SNP array chips with particular emphasis on the H3Africa genotype chip. The lecture will cover common file formats when obtaining genotyping chip data from a service provider such as Illumina and software used for genotype calling. This lecture will also cover genotype calling, sample and probe quality control, probe viewing and exporting of data using GenomeStudio. Converting the data to PLINK format and some tips on troubleshooting and common pitfalls will be discussed.
