Heritability estimation of sex-specific effects on human quantitative traits.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 May 2007

Pan Lin, Ober Carole, Abney Mark

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have suggested that sex-specific genetic architecture could be because of the effects of autosomal genes that are differentially expressed in males and females. Yet, few studies have explored the effects of X-linked genes on sex-specific genetic architecture. In this study, we extended the variance component, maximum likelihood method to evaluate the relative contributions of sex-specific effects...
