This volume explores methods and protocols for detecting epistasis from genetic data. Chapters provide methods and protocols demonstrating approaches to identify epistasis, genetic epistasis testing, genome-wide epistatic SNP networks, epistasis detection through machine learning, and complex interaction analysis using trigenic synthetic genetic array (τ-SGA). Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, application details for both the expert and non-expert reader, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge, Epistasis: Methods and Protocols aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
