Sample Size 497 individuals from a large pedigree were used for linkage analysis using microsatellite data. 388 out of them were used for genotyping using illumina Omni SNP array. 50 out of them were for whole genome sequencing, comprising 18 parent-child trios.
SNP/Region/Marker Size 11M SNPs of whole genome sequence data, 2.5M SNPs of illumina Omni SNP array, 2000 markers of microsatellite data.
Predominant Ethnicity Caucasian
Population Old Order Amish pedigree
Age Group adults : The average age of onset for BPI patients was 24.6.
