  ABSTRACT: Graphical abstract Introduction A population-specific genomic reference is important for research and clinical practice, yet it remains unavailable for Han Chinese (HC) in Taiwan. Objectives We report the first whole genome sequencing (WGS) database of HC (1000 Taiwanese genome (1KTW-WGS)) and demonstrate several applications to cardiovascular medicine. Methods Whole genomes of 997 HC were sequenced to at least 30X depth. A total of 20,117 relatively healthy HC individuals were genotyped using a customized Axiom GWAS array. We performed a genome-wide genotype imputation technique using IMPUTE2. Results We identified 26.7 million single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and 4.2 million insertions-deletions. Of the SNVs, 16.1% were novel relative to dbSNP (build 152), and 34.2% were novel
