1 Introduction

This R package provides methods for genetic finemapping in inbred mice by taking advantage of their very high homozygosity rate (>95%).

For one ore more chromosomal regions (GRCm38), method finemap extracts homozygous SNVs for which the allele differs between two sets of strains (e.g. case vs controls) and outputs respective causal SNV/gene candidates.
