摘要: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been extensively used to estimate the signed effects of trait-associated alleles. One key challenges in GWAS are confounding factors, such as population stratification, which can lead spurious genotype-trait associations. Recent independent [1, 8, 10] failed replicate strong evidence previously reported signals directional selection on height Europeans UK Biobank cohort, and attributed loss signal cryptic relatedness populations.
