Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height

GCTA: A Tool for Genome-wide Complex Trait Analysis

Common SNPs explain a large proportion of the heritability for human height

Increased accuracy of artificial selection by using the realized relationship matrix

Summary Dense marker genotypes allow the construction of the realized relationship matrix between individuals, with elements the realized proportion of the genome that is identi...

Whole-genome sequencing of 234 bulls facilitates mapping of monogenic and complex traits in cattle

The 1000 bull genomes project supports the goal of accelerating the rates of genetic gain in domestic cattle while at the same time considering animal health and welfare by prov...

Genomic inflation factors under polygenic inheritance

Population structure, including population stratification and cryptic relatedness, can cause spurious associations in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Usually, the scaled...
