- This table compares the minimum detectable odds ratios (MDOR) at 80% power for a theoretical pooling experiment with 300 cases and 1000 controls, given a DNA-pooling strategy where 24, 12, 6, or 3 Illumina 660-Quad replicate arrays are used to allelotype each DNA pool (case and control). The equivalent individual genotyping experiment is given for reference. Relative sample size (RSS) and effective sample size (N*) are generated by PoolingPlanner assuming var(earray)= 3.3 × 10-4, var(econstruction)= 9.9 × 10-5, and an average minor allele frequency of 0.29. MDOR at 80% power were calculated using Quanto [21] assuming an unmatched case-control design testing for gene-only effects using a log-additive model, where the incidence of the case phenotype is 0.02% and the risk allele, p, is set to 0.29 or 0.10.
