Hello, I am new in the evolutionary genomics field. For getting ancestral alleles I have followed the instructions given here:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/books/NBK44409/
However, when looking into the "SNPAncestralAllele.bcp.gz" file (GRCh37p13), I notice that for some specific SNPs (snp ID) there are batch IDs indicating different ancestral alleles, for instance snp IDs 915:
snp ID/ancest allele/batch ID
915 4 1050983
915 4 1052591
915 7 1061836
In these cases, should I consider the ancestral alleles with batch ID of higher value? Are those more updated?
