Table 2 Significant outliers called by STRling in 260 individuals from the 1000 Genomes Project. We performed joint-calling and outlier testing, then filtered the results to 32 well-characterized known pathogenic STR loci (see the “Methods” section). There were 204 significant STRling calls across ten loci (the others had no significant calls), resulting in an estimated FDR of 0.078. Of these, most also had evidence of a short, likely non-pathogenic allele (reads and read pairs spanning the locus), suggesting heterozygosity
