Procedures in Four-Cycle Genotyping
| First cycle | 1. Genotyping for all DNA samples |
| 2. Importing genotype data intoGenoDB | |
| 3. Detecting unresolved genotype data (including both missing data and genotype errors) byGenoDB | |
| Second cycle | 1. Re-genotyping for those unsolved genotype data in the first cycle |
| 2. Importing genotype data intoGenoDB | |
| 3. Detecting unresolved genotype data by GenoDB | |
| 4. Detecting inconsistent genotype data by performing Medelian PedCheck | |
| Third cycle | 1. Re-genotyping for those unsolved and inconsistent genotype data in the second cycle |
| 2. Repeating steps 2, 3, and 4 of the second cycle | |
| Fourth cycle | 1. Repeating Steps 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the third cycle |
| 2. Unresolved genotype data are classified into two categories: missing data and mutations |
