Abstract
We demonstrated how a flexible Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS) platform was built using the iPlant Collaborative Cyber-infrastructure. The platform is open for end users to add additional analysis tools. With the platform, customized GWAS workflows can be built in both iPlant Discovery Environment and BioExtract server.
