Comparison of methods that use whole genome data to estimate the heritability and genetic architecture of complex traits
Multiple methods have been developed to estimate narrow-sense heritability, h 2 , using
single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in unrelated individuals. However, a comprehensive …

[PDF][PDF] Additive genetic variation in schizophrenia risk is shared by populations of African and European descent
To investigate the extent to which the proportion of schizophrenia's additive genetic variation
tagged by SNPs is shared by populations of European and African descent, we analyzed …

Narrow-sense heritability estimation of complex traits using identity-by-descent information
Heritability is a fundamental parameter in genetics. Traditional estimates based on family or
twin studies can be biased due to shared environmental or non-additive genetic variance. …

Meta-analysis of positive and negative symptoms reveals schizophrenia modifier genes
Background: Evidence suggests that genetic factors may influence both schizophrenia (Scz)
and its clinical presentation. In recent years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) …
