SimWalk2: Mistyping Output Files

The TYPNG-nn.mmm files contain the overall probability of mistyping at each observed genotype, for each original pedigree. These probabilities take into account Mendelian inconsistencies and those mistypings consistent with Mendelian inheritance. In fact, a probability of mistyping is provided for each observed allele.

All genotype mistyping probabilities that exceed 0.25 are flagged using a double hash mark ( ##). Thus all such genotypes can be quickly seen by searching for ' ##' in the output files (in Unix/Linux system this can be accomplished from the command line by issuing the command "grep -h ' ##' TYPNG*").

In these output files the individuals appear in the same order as the pedigree data file and the marker loci in the order specified by the map data file. (Of course the individuals and loci are labeled as well.)

The XOVER-nn.ALL file contains the observed and expected number of crossovers found in this analysis. Also, the resulting p-value for each marker interval recombination fraction is reported.
