phenotype.snp


The phenotype data is a numerical vector of length 51. It represents 51
measured phenotypes for 51 laboratory mouse strains. It is to be used as a
dependent variable in combination with the SNP genotype data, in order to
compute the association between each of the SNPs and the phenotype.


dataset

Given a set of genetic polymorphisms in the form of single
nucleotide poylmorphisms or single amino acid polymorphisms and
a corresponding phenotype data, often we are interested to
quantify their association such that we can identify the causal
polymorphisms. Using statistical learning techniques such as
random forests and support vector machines, this tool provides
the means to estimate genotype-phenotype associations. It also
provides visualization functions which enable the user to
visually inspect the results of such genetic association study
and conveniently select the genotypes which have the highest
strenght ofassociation with the phenotype.
