Assessing runs of Homozygosity: a comparison of SNP Array and whole genome sequence low coverage data

Abstract Background Runs of Homozygosity (ROH) are genomic regions where identical haplotypes are inherited from each parent. Since their first detection due to technological advances in the late 1990s, ROHs have been shedding light on human population history and deciphering the genetic basis of mo...
