Genotype imputation is a standard approach used in the field of genetics. It can be used to fill in missing genotypes or to increase genotype density. Accurate imputed genotypes are required for downstream analyses. In this study, the accuracy of whole-genome sequence imputation for Angus beef cattle was examined using two different ways to form the reference panel, a within-breed reference population and a multi breed reference population. A stepwise imputation was conducted by imputing medium-density (50k) genotypes to high-density, and then to the whole genome sequence (WGS). The reference population consisted of animals with WGS information from the 1 000 Bull Genomes project. The within-breed reference panel comprised 396 Angus cattle, while an additional 2 380 Taurine cattle were added to the reference population for the multi breed reference scenario. Imputation accuracies were variant-wise average accuracies from a 10-fold cross-validation and expressed as concordance rates (CR) and Pearson’s correlations (PR). The two imputation scenarios achieved moderate to high imputation accuracies ranging from 0.896 to 0.966 for CR and from 0.779 to 0.834 for PR. The accuracies from two different scenarios were similar, except for PR from WGS imputation, where the within-breed scenario outperformed the multi breed scenario. The result indicated that including a large number of animals from other breeds in the reference panel to impute purebred Angus did not improve the accuracy and may negatively impact the results. In conclusion, the imputed WGS in Angus cattle can be obtained with high accuracy using a within-breed reference panel. |
