Two grand challenges in the postgenomic era are to develop a detailed understanding of heritable variation in the human genome, and to develop robust strategies for identifying the genetic contribution to diseases and drug responses. Haplotypes of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been suggested as an effective representation of human variation, and various haplotype-based association mapping methods for complex traits have been proposed in the literature. However, humans are diploid and, in practice, genotype data instead of haplotype data are collected directly. Therefore, efficient and accurate computational methods for haplotype reconstruction are needed and have recently been investigated intensively, especially for tightly linked markers such as SNPs. This paper reviews statistical and combinatorial haplotyping algorithms using pedigree data, unrelated individuals, or pooled samples. |
