For continuous traits, GWAF
package provides two sets of functions for each of genome-wide association/interaction analyses
with observed/imputed SNP genotypes for family data. One fits Linear Mixed Effects (LME) model and the other fits Generalized Estimation Equation (GEE) model
to accounting for within pedigree correlation. While for dichotomous trait, GWAF
package provides functions to fit GEE model for
genome-wide association/interaction analyses. For rare variant analysis, GWAF
fits LME and generalized linear mixed effects (GLMM) model
for continuous traits and dichotomous traits, respectively. In addition, GWAF
package
also provides functions for making genome-wide p-values plot and QQ plot that contains genomic control
parameter estimate and generating scripts for genome-wide association analysis.
