Local exome sequences facilitate imputation of less common variants and increase power of genome wide association studies.
The analysis of less common variants in genome-wide association studies promises to elucidate complex trait genetics but is hampered by low power to reliably detect association. We show that addition of population-specific exome sequence data to global reference data allows more accurate imputation,...
