GBS

Pros:

Highly reduced genome size (methylation-sensitive RE)

Inexpensive (~$1,700 per lane)

Good for SNP detection and GWAS analysis

Cons:

large amount of missing data (~40-80% with ApeKI)

Difficult to call heterozygotes in highly heterozygous

Technical missing is confounded with biological missing

SNP Filters and Scoring

The 1st SNP filter

GBSHapMapFiltersPlugin [Remove minimum allele

frequency (MAF) < 0.01]

The 2nd SNP filter

Remove missing data ratio > 20%

The 3rd SNP filter

Keep SNP with χ2 < 9.49

The 4th SNP filter

Remove neighboring SNPs with the same genotype
