By tracking samples, variants, and quality-specific measures throughout fully customizable pipelines, users can easily manage genetics data for large and small studies. GenoTools\u2019 \u201cAncestry\u201d module renders highly accurate predictions, allowing for high-quality ancestry-specific studies, and enables custom ancestry model training and serialization, specified to the user\u2019s genotyping or sequencing platform. As the genotype processing engine that powers several large initiatives, including the NIH\u2019s Center for Alzheimer\u2019s and Related Dementias (CARD) and the Global Parkinson\u2019s Genetics Program (GP2). GenoTools was used to process and analyze the UK Biobank and major Alzheimer\u2019s Disease (AD) and Parkinson\u2019s Disease (PD) datasets with over 400,000 genotypes from arrays and 5000 sequences and has led to novel discoveries in diverse populations. It has provided replicable ancestry predictions, implemented rigorous QC, and conducted genetic ancestry-specific GWAS to identify systematic errors or biases through a single command. GenoTools is a customizable tool that enables users to efficiently analyze and scale genotype data with reproducible and scalable ancestry, QC, and GWAS pipelines.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1101\/2024.03.26.586362","type":"posted-content","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,29]],"date-time":"2024-03-29T19:15:20Z","timestamp":1711739720000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["GenoTools:
