PlinkMatrix: DelayedArray interface for plink bed files

This package provides a DelayedArray interface for plink bed files. There is support for interfacing to plink genotype data via RangedSummarizedExperiment. Example data from the GEUVADIS project (internationalgenome.org) are used for demonstration.
