The sentences
Using UPDio, all six UPD events were easily called from both platforms yielding highly significant P -values in both SNP and exome data.
Whole-genome analysis counted an average of 278 informative genotypes per Mb, 20× greater density than our SNP platform, required 9 min and 27 Mb of memory and detected no UPD events beyond marginal significance.
