p_ACT

p_ACT is an R program that adjusts sets of up to 1000 p-values from association tests between correlated traits and SNPs for multiple testing, accounting for the correlation between tests.

Version 1.0 of P_ACT was the initial release to the public.

Version 1.1 is modified to allow omission of the traits.txt file when only one trait is considered, and omission of the genotype.txt file and the covar.txt file when only one genotype is considered.

The file p_ACT distribution includes the following:

• README.txt: a description of how to run p_ACT.R and proper input file formats
• p_ACT.R: R program for non-sequential p_ACT; adjusts only the minimum p-value of a set.
• p_ACT_seq.R: R program for sequential p_ACT; adjusts all p-values for which p_ACT < alpha.
• Sample Files: A directory containing sample input and output files
