1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundUse of whole-genome sequence data (WGS) is expected to improve identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL). However, this requires imputation to WGS, often with a limited number of sequenced animals for the target population. The objective of this study was to investigate imputation to WGS in two pig lines using a multi-line reference population and, subsequently, to investigate the effect of using these imputed WGS (iWGS) for GWAS.

methodsPhenotypes and genotypes were available on 12,184 Large White pigs (LW-line) and 4943 Dutch Landrace pigs (DL-line). Imputed 660 K and 80 K genotypes for the LW-line and DL-line, respectively, were imputed to iWGS using Beagle v.4.1. Since only 32 LW-line and 12 DL-line boars were sequenced, 142 animals from eight commercial lines were added. GWAS were performed for each line using the 80 K and 660 K SNPs, the genotype scores of iWGS SNPs that had an imputation accuracy (Beagle R

resultsFor the DL-line (LW-line), imputation of 80 K genotypes to iWGS resulted in an average Beagle R

conclusionsImputation to WGS using the multi-line reference population resulted in relatively poor imputation, especially when imputing from 80 K (DL-line). In spite of the poor imputation accuracies, using iWGS instead of a lower density SNP chip increased the number of detected QTL and the estimated proportion of phenotypic variance explained by these QTL, especially when dosage scores were used instead of genotype scores. Thus, iWGS, even with poor imputation accuracy, can be used to identify possible interesting regions for fine mapping.
