摘要

pHigh-density array-based genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are complemented by exome sequencing and whole-genome resequencing-based association studies. Here we present a composite resequencing-based genome-wide association study (CR-GWAS) strategy that systematically exploits collective biological information and analytical tools for a robust analysis. We showcased the utility of this strategy by using Arabidopsis (iArabidopsis thaliana/i) resequencing data. Bioinformatic predictions of biological function alteration at each locus were integrated into the process of association testing of both common and rare variants for complex traits with a suite of statistics. Significant signals were then filtered with ia priori/i candidate loci generated from genome database and gene network models to obtain ia posteriori/i candidate loci. A probabilistic gene network (AraNet) that interrogates network neighborhoods of genes was then used to expand the filtering power to examine the significant testing signals. Using this strategy, we confirmed the known true positives and identified several new promising associations. Promising genes (iAP1/i, iFCA/i, iFRI/i, iFLC/i, iFLM/i, iSPL5/i, iFY/i, and iDCL2/i) were shown to control for flowering time through either common variants or rare variants within a diverse set of Arabidopsis accessions. Although many of these candidate genes were cloned earlier with mutational studies, identifying their allele variation contribution to overall phenotypic variation among diverse natural accessions is critical. Our rare allele testing established a greater number of connections than previous analyses in which this issue was not addressed. More importantly, our results demonstrated the potential of integrating various biological, statistical, and bioinformatic tools into complex trait dissection./p
