High levels of pairwise linkage disequilibrium (LD) in single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array or whole-genome sequence data may affect both performance and efficiency of genomic prediction models. Thus, this warrants pruning of genotyping data for high LD. We developed an algorithm, named SNPrune, which enables the rapid detection of any pair of SNPs in complete or high LD throughout the genome.

Open source whole genome association analysis toolset, designed to perform range of basic, large scale analyses in computationally efficient manner. Used for analysis of genotype/phenotype data. Through integration with gPLINK and Haploview, there is some support for subsequent visualization, annotation and storage of results. PLINK 1.9 is improved and second generation of the software.
View all literature mentionsSoftware application designed to simulate a wide range of genetic architectures and population structures in livestock. Large scale genotyping data and complex pedigrees can be efficiently simulated. QMSim is a family based simulator, which can also take into account predefined evolutionary features, such as LD, mutation, bottlenecks and expansions. The simulation is basically carried out in two steps: In the first step, a historical population is simulated to establish mutation-drift equilibrium and, in the second step, recent population structures are generated, which can be complex. QMSim allows for a wide range of parameters to be incorporated in the simulation models in order to produce appropriate simulated data. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
