Abstract: Objective We evaluated the accuracy and efficiency of computational inference methods for haplotype on estimate HLA-A-B-C haplotype frequencies by compared with the haplotypes manually defined in a family-base dataset.Methods 558 individuals with pedigree information were selected,and their haplotyps were compared with the data obtained by the following three method:the ExpectationMaximization ( EM ) and Excoffier-Laval-Balding (ELB) algorithms using the AELEQUIN software,and the SAS/Genetics PROC HAPLOTYPE method.Results After performing the SAS/Genetics method,and the Expectation-Maximization ( EM ) and Excoffier-Laval-Balding ( ELB ) algorithms using the AELEQUIN software,248,247,and 238 different haplotypes were obtained respectively.The accuracy rates of these three methods were 88.5%,89.1%,and 90.3% respectively.There are no significant different in the accuracy and estimated haplotype frequency comparisons among any two of these computational inference methods.Conclusion High accuracy haplotype frequency estimate rates could be obtained by these three computational inference methods,and there are no significant difference in the comparison of haplotypes estimated by SAS/Genetics,the EM and ELB algorithms using the AELEQUIN software.However,ELB algorithm shows better performance than EM algorithm and SAS/Genetics PROC HAPLOTYPE method for haplotype frequencies estimation in general.
