Does phasing improve imputation quality?

Yes. Phasing data leads to a better imputation accuracy. More specifically: Improves allele matching: Correct phased data ensures that alleles are matched correctly between the reference panel and ...

Imputing missing genotypes from separate genotyping panels

Given that you mention wanting to use 1000 Genomes as a reference panel for imputing genotypes into your two SNP chip panels, I am going to assume that you are working with human data. In that case ...

Topmed File Requirements

There are tools that allows you to sort your VCF file by genomic position like bcftools sort or vcf-sort. But if you don't want to install these software, you could always do with bash tools for one ...

Imputing small region of the genome

I would take something like 1.5Mb either side of the SNP of interest (so a 3Mb chunk), subset that out from the target and reference panel and then perform imputation on that chunk alone. I think that ...

Confusing result from Sanger Imputation Service (Eagle v2.4 for phasing, PBWT v3.1 for imputation)

Don't know. These could be retired or inconsistent SNPs (e.g. shifted locations, or otherwise found to be different from expected). It might be that the imputation suggests that the SNP should be ...

Tutorials on phasing and imputing low-coverage sequencing data

This is all relevant for data 0.5x-1x coverage. Assuming you have genotype likelihoods data, if you want to phase low-coverage data, the most suitable options are GLIMPSE, Beagle4 and QUILT. Of the ...

Filtering imputed GWAS SNPs based on a MAF difference of 10%

I cannot think of any principled rationale for choosing this filtering strategy. However, I am going to take a guess that this filtering strategy is supposed to filter out SNPs for which imputation ...

Order of batch effects removal, data imputation and library size normalization in scRNA-seq data

MAGIC assumes input data has been both library-size normalized, and either log or sqrt transformed prior to imputation (see also: MAGIC tutorial). Additionally, any graph-based methods (MAGIC, PHATE, ...

Recommendations for missing value imputation - DNA methylation data

I think this is still an active field of research. I have heard of Phenix, which might be appropriate.

Imputation of dog genotype

Impute2 is a great, if dated choice. Another great choice is beagle. The advantage of beagle in this case is that it is not as strict about requiring a recombination map. Without a map, results will ...

How to filter info score post-imputation?

In simple GWAS setups, each SNP is analyzed independently. In those cases you can filter out SNPs with poor INFO scores at any point. For analyses that combine information across SNPs (for example ...

Impute phenotype under some constraints

Question 1: Is there a tool for imputing phenotypes while also using genetic data? Yes, try Andy Dahl's Phenix from the Marchini lab. Disclosure: I did my PhD in the Marchini lab, although I was ...

SNPs in LD in which populations?

There is a risk of a type 2 error. My advice would be to use Structure if it is still available given the situation. Its not great and it is old and its a GUI and I ...

correlation between imputed genotype and true genotype

This is done by downsampling. Take the 1000 genomes, set some genotypes as missing ./., impute them using GLIMPSE, then measure correlation between the genotype ...

Imputing 23andMe 3v data to v4 and v5?

The different V numbers are just different number of SNPs as far as I'm aware. So there's not going to be a service which just imputes the variants to make e.g. V3 into V5. The Michigan Imputation ...

Should genotype imputation be ancestry specific?

Basically, yes, you will get better results if you use a reference panel which contains samples with similar ancestry to your targets. Imputation works by matching haplotypes in your target samples to ...

imputed dosage values for vcf files
