Evaluation of Beagle Genotype Imputation Method and An Application
Abstract
This study describes the
genotype imputation method using the Beagle program and was completed with the
aim of evaluating the imputation performance in three different scenarios. A
population-based imputation method, the Beagle program uses linkage
disequilibrium (LD) information between missing single nucleotid polimorfizm
(SNP) and observed SNPs, the local haplotype cluster (Browning) model to offer
high rates of imputation accuracy for estimation of deficient genotypes. With
this aim, the study used 1356 SNP data from the 22nd chromosome of
191 individuals in the 1000 Genome project, cutting the dataset at random rates
of 20%, 50% and 70% to create three different scenarios. The Allelic-R2
values obtained as a result of the three scenarios were larger than 90% and
imputations with high degree of accuracy were made. In this study the
differences in the size of the reference datasets in the Beagle program were
not identified to have a clear effect on imputation accuracy. In conclusion, in
terms of results obtained from samples with different sizes using the Beagle
program, imputations with high accuracy could be made.
