Abstract

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have become the primary type of molecular genetic marker used in a diverse range of genetic and genomic studies. SNPs can be used to identify genomic regions linked to traits such as disease in genome-wide association studies, to understand population structure and diversity, or to understand mechanisms of genome evolution. One of the first steps of any SNP-based workflow, following SNP discovery, is quality control of SNP data. The protocol described here details how to perform quality control on SNP data to minimise errors in downstream analysis.
