Description

Epistasis in PLINK, analyzing how the effects of one gene depend on the presence of others.

Input

Name (Type)
Description
Pattern

meta (map)

Groovy Map containing sample information
e.g. [ id:‘test’, single_end

]
meta is associated to the PLINK native file input

meta2 (map)

Groovy Map containing sample information,
e.g. [ id:‘test’, single_end

]
meta2 is associated to VCF file input

meta3 (map)

Groovy Map containing sample information,
e.g. [ id:‘test’, single_end

]
meta3 is associated to BCF file input

meta4 (map)

Groovy Map containing sample information,
e.g. [ id:‘test’, single_end

]
meta4 is associated to phenotype file input

bed (file)

PLINK binary biallelic genotype table file

*.{bed}

bim (file)

PLINK extended MAP file

*.{bim}

fam (file)

PLINK sample information file
