PHARP: a pig haplotype reference panel for genotype imputation.

ABSTRACT: Pigs not only function as a major meat source worldwide but also are commonly used as an animal model for studying human complex traits. A large haplotype reference panel has been used to facilitate efficient phasing and imputation of relatively sparse genome-wide microarray chips and low-coverage sequencing data. Using the imputed genotypes in the downstream analysis, such as GWASs, TWASs, eQTL mapping and genomic prediction (GS), is beneficial for obtaining novel findings. However, currently, there is still a lack of publicly available and high-quality pig reference panels with large sample sizes and high diversity, which greatly limits the application of genotype imputation in pigs. In response, we built the pig Haplotype Reference Panel (PHARP) database. PHARP provides a reference pane
