Checks: 2 0

Knit directory: misc/

This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.5.0). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility. The version displayed above was the version of the Git repository at the time these results were generated.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:


Untracked files:
    Untracked:  analysis/GWAS.Rmd

Unstaged changes:
    Modified:   analysis/index.Rmd

Note that any generated files, e.g. HTML, png, CSS, etc., are not included in this status report because it is ok for generated content to have uncommitted changes.


These are the previous versions of the R Markdown and HTML files. If you’ve configured a remote Git repository (see ?wflow_git_remote), click on the hyperlinks in the table below to view them.

Coverage: 1. number of reads that align to, or “cover,” a known reference: number of reads \(\times\) read length / \(\#\) bases of reference. 2. the percentage coverage of a reference by reads. E.g. if 90% of a reference is covered by reads (and 10% not) it is a 90% coverage. https://www.ecseq.com/support/ngs/how-to-calculate-the-coverage-for-a-sequencing-experiment

Depth: total number of usable reads from the sequencing machine.

Genotype: alleles in an organism. Pair of alleles at a locus. Genetic identity.

Heritability: percent of total trait variance ‘explained’ by genes

Phenotype, Trait: observed charateristics, often used interchangeably with Phenotype. A phenotype can also refer to a collection of traits. An individual can have a collection of traits (brown hair, brown eyes, cleft chin, etc) and you could say that all that is their phenotype.

SNPs: most common type of genetic variation among people. For example, a SNP may replace the nucleotide cytosine (C) with the nucleotide thymine (T) in a certain stretch of DNA. Most commonly, these variations are found in the DNA between genes. They can act as biological markers, helping scientists locate genes that are associated with disease. When SNPs occur within a gene or in a regulatory region near a gene, they may play a more direct role in disease by affecting the gene’s function.
