Package name: plink2 URL: https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/2.0/ License: GPL3+ Description: whole-genome association analysis toolset plink expects as input the data from SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) chips of many individuals and their phenotypical description of a disease. It finds associations of single or pairs of DNA variations with a phenotype and can retrieve SNP annotation from an online source. . SNPs can evaluated individually or as pairs for their association with the disease phenotypes. The joint investigation of copy number variations is supported. A variety of statistical tests have been implemented. . plink2 is a comprehensive update of plink 1.07 and plink 1.9 with new algorithms and new methods, faster and less memory consumer than the first plink. Plink 2 breaks many things against plink 1.07 and plink 1.9 so it will need a new separate package. Plink 2 is currently in alpha stage but it should be great to already have a package. This package will be maintained by the Debian Med team at: https://anonscm.debian.org/git/debian-med/plink2.git
