common variant phasing (MAF >=0.1%) and rare variants (MAF<0.1%)

Singleton phasing(singleton variants (minor allele count (MAC) of 1))

This is a well-known limitation of all statistical phasing methods. SHAPEIT5 can provide inference at these sites by using the Viterbi algorithm for the Li and Stephens model, to obtain the longest shared IBD segment between each one of the two target haplotypes and the conditioning haplotypes.

The pipeline uses BCFtools for marker filtering, Beagle for genotype phasing, and Tabix for VCF indexing.The pipeline’s QC filter excludes markers with AAScore <=0.95, markers with >=5% missing data, and non-SNV markers.
