Existing methods often focus on determining associations between single loci and a specic phenotype. However, a particular phenotype is usually the result of complex relationships between multiple loci and the environment. In this paper, we describe a two-stage method for detecting epistasis by combining the traditionally used single-locus search with a search for multiway interactions. Our method is based on an extended version of Fisher's exact test. To\nperform this test, a Markov chain is constructed on the space of multidimensional contingency tables using the elements of a Markov basis as moves. We test our method on simulated data and compare it to a two-stage logistic regression method and to a fully Bayesian method, showing that we are able to detect the interacting loci when other methods fail to do so. Finally, we apply our method to a genome-wide data set consisting of 685 dogs and identify epistasis associated with canine hair length for four pairs of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)."}],"issue":"1","publication":"Journal of Algebraic Statistics","publication_status":"published","title":"Detecting epistasis via Markov bases","quality_controlled":0,"author":[{"last_name":"Malaspinas","full_name":"Malaspinas, Anna-Sapfo ","first_name":"Anna"},{"last_name":"Uhler","id":"49ADD78E-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Caroline Uhler","first_name":"Caroline","orcid":"0000-0002-7008-0216"}],"doi":"http://dx.doi.org/10.18409/jas.v2i1.27","_id":"2961","main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1006.4929","open_access":"1"}]}
