Abstract: genhwcci is an immediate command used for estimating allele frequency, genotype frequencies, disequilibrium coefficients and the associated standard error for codominant traits or data of completely known genotypes in case-control studies. For both genotypic counts of cases and controls, it performs asymptotic Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) tests. It also tests the HWE for genotypic counts of cases, under the assumption that the genotypic counts of controls are under HWE; where #AA1, #Aa1 and #aa1 are genotypic counts for the AA, Aa and aa of cases; while #AA2, #Aa2 and #aa2 are genotypic counts of the controls. This command works for biallelic loci only. This is a revision of material published in STB-57, sg150, 2000.
