Statistical approaches to evaluate interactions between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and SNP-environment interactions are of great importance in genetic association studies, as susceptibility to complex disease might be related to the interaction of multiple SNPs and/or environmental factors. With these methods under active development, algorithms to simulate genomic data sets are needed to ensure proper type I error control of newly proposed methods and to compare power with existing methods. In this paper we propose an efficient method for a haplotype-based simulation of case-parent trios when the disease risk is thought to depend on possibly higher-order epistatic interactions or gene-environment interactions with binary exposures.
