What you can do:

Map recessive traits in consanguineous families.

Highlights:

HomozygosityMapper is a web-based approach to homozygosity mapping.
The application stores marker data in a database into which users can directly upload their own SNP genotype files.
The database analyses the data, detects homozygous stretches and provides an intuitive graphical interface to the results.
The homozygosity in affected individuals is visualized genome-wide with the ability to zoom into single chromosomes and user-defined chromosomal regions.
The software also displays the underlying genotypes in all samples.
It is integrated with the candidate gene search engine, GeneDistiller, so that users can interactively determine the most promising gene.
Access to their data can be restricted or made public, allowing HomozygosityMapper to be used as a data repository for homozygosity-mapping studies.
