The inflation in Type I error appears to be most dramatic among SNPs measured in Illumina and imputed in Affy. We suspect that this is because Illumina uses HapMap for SNP selection, and we used HapMap for SNP imputation. When we considered SNPs common to both chips, the distribution of test statistics was what we expect under the null, suggesting that the actual genotyping across the two chips is in good agreement.
