  1. Use plink 2.0’s —import-dosage and —make-bed flags to generate plink bed/bim/fam files. —hard-call-threshold can be used to control which dosage values get rounded to the nearest integer vs. converted to a missing call.
  2. plink 1.x’s —recode command converts bed/bim/fam to ped/map.

I searched this question 8 months ago, and did not get a satisfied result. I used the Beagle4.0 utilities to generate vcf first and then to plink format. This way is much better. Thanks again, Christ.
