An ancestry informative marker panel design for individual ancestry estimation of Hispanic population using whole exome sequencing data

Abstract Background Europeans and American Indians were major genetic ancestry of Hispanics in the U.S. These ancestral groups have markedly different incidence rates and outcomes in many types of cancers. Therefore, the genetic admixture may cause biased genetic association study with cancer suscep...
