On quality control measures in genome-wide association studies: a test to assess the genotyping quality of individual probands in family-based association studies and an application to the HapMap data.

Allele transmissions in pedigrees provide a natural way of evaluating the genotyping quality of a particular proband in a family-based, genome-wide association study. We propose a transmission test that is based on this feature and that can be used for quality control filtering of genome-wide genoty...
