Sweep is a reliable and powerful utility which will considerably simplify the thorough analysis of haplotype structure in genomes. The program will help you find evidences of natural selection and will assist you in your research tasks. The application utilizes the LRH (Long Range Haplotype) test in order to search for alleles of high frequency with LD (linkage disequilibrium). This will suggest the haplotype quickly elevated to high frequency before recombination could interrupt associations with nearby markers.
Sweep will take your phased genotype data as input and will easily detect all haplotype blocks in it. The program will also determine the long-rage LD and frequency for each allele contained in each block.
Pros
- The application is fast, reliable and highly efficient.
Cons
- Requires a certain level of Biology and Genetics knowledge.
