Abstract

Structural variants (SVs) are known to have large functional impacts on phenotypes of agricultural interest, but they have yet to be routinely used for GWAS. Apart from the difficulty in obtaining high-quality SV genotype data for large populations, one of the main hurdles to using SVs for GWAS lies in formatting of genotype data for use with popular GWAS programs. This protocol describes how typical SV genotype data can be formatted for input to three GWAS programs commonly used by the plant genetics community: TASSEL, GAPIT, and mrMLM.
