What are exclude tags?
The opposite of “include tags”; these SNPs will never be selected as tagSNPs. If they occur in an LD bin with other potential tagSNPs, the others will be selected as tags. If they occur as singletons they will simply be ignored. They should be provided as one SNP in each line in a text file, as described above for “include tags” (see FAQ no. 18). Please note that QuickSNP can handle at most 250 include/exclude SNPs at present.
