UK Biobank reference in LAVA binary LD format, version 1.1 (requires LAVA v0.1.5 or up)

Recommended for European ancestry analyses. LD is computed from 100,000 unrelated individuals of European ancestry from the UK Biobank, up to a distance of 10 megabases for each SNP. Total filesize is 15 Gb (unzipped), stored per chromosome. Note that the LAVA binary LD file format is unrelated to the LDSTORE .bcor file format.

1,000 Genomes reference genotype data in PLINK format

Data is obtained from 1000 genomes, and has been cleaned and preprocessed, split by ancestry. Note that as the sample size of the 1,000 Genomes cohorts is relatively small, larger genotype data sets of the same ancestry should be preferred if available.
