Check this box to treat multiallelic markers as multiallelic in the analysis instead of converting them to biallelic markers in terms of the non-major
alleles
.
When this option is checked, the
Expand Multiallelic Genotypes
process is run and
genotypes
are converted to expanded representations with one column per allele (with the last allele dropped). The expanded genotypes are used for calculating the
Q
and
K
matrices. The
Marker-Trait Association
process is used to run the
Q-K
analysis to accommodate the multiple alleles per marker in a single
model
.
