KING 1.4 – Identify Family and Population Structure

KING 1.4

:: DESCRIPTION

KING (Kinship-based INference for Gwas) is a toolset for identifing family and population structure using genome-wide SNP data. KING can be used to check family relationship and flag pedigree errors by estimating all kinship coefficients for all pairwise relationships. Unrelated pairs can be well separated from close relatives (up to 3rd-degree) and vice versa.
