Description:
GWA studies are perhaps most often used for studying the genetic basis of human diseases, but this technology also has great utility for studying the natural variation of other organisms. In this webcast, Ashley Hintz, Field Application Scientist, will discuss the utility of SVS for analyzing plant GWA data, using publicly available SNP data for Arabidopsis thaliana as a case study. Along the way, Ashley will demonstrate how SVS can be used to manage data, analyze population structure, perform genotype QA and ultimately replicate a published genetic association in A. thaliana using EMMAX regression. She will also address the flexibility of SVS for analyzing the genomes of other plant and animal species.

Introduction

Combining topics of previous webcasts:- “Maximizing Public Data Sources for Sequencing and GWAS Studies”- “Back to Basics: Using GWAS to Drive Discovery for Complex Diseases”- “Mixed Models: How to Effectively Account for Inbreeding and Population Structure in

GWAS”

Additional Dimension: Non-human data from A. thaliana

Combining these topics in a single webcast!

Raw Data

Genotype Data- Downloaded as .CSV file containing

haploid genotypes

- Imported text file to SVS, used Python script to convert to homozygous diploid genotypes for analysis

Sample Data- Text file detailing collection site of all

1307 samples, including GPS coordinates

- Additional text file with phenotypes for 199 samples, as used in Atwell et al. 2010 GWAS paper

- Both were imported to SVS for further analysis

TAIR_9 Assembly Annotations

Downloaded from Arabidopsis.org

Reference sequence in FASTA format

Gene annotations in GFF3 format

Both converted to SVS native TSF format using tools in SVS
