“…Another approach is called “structured association test (SAT)”, where a set of unlinked genetic markers are used to estimate the ancestry probabilities for each individual (Falush et al , 2003; Pritchard and Rosenberg, 1999; Pritchard et al , 2000; Redden et al , 2006; Satten et al , 2001; Tang et al , 2005; Wu et al , 2006). These estimates of ancestry probabilities are then used in association analysis to control for population structure/admixture (Pritchard et al , 2000; Redden et al , 2006; Satten et al , 2001; Yu et al , 2006; Zhao et al , 2007). A third approach uses genetic background derived from a set of independent genetic markers to control for population structure/admixture in association analysis (Bauchet et al , 2007; Chen et al , 2003; Paschou et al , 2008; Price et al , 2006; Zhang et al , 2003; Zhu et al , 2008; Zhu et al , 2002; Zou et al , 2010).…”
