A flexible likelihood framework for detecting associations with secondary phenotypes in genetic studies using selected samples: application to sequence data.

Abstract excerpt

For most complex trait association studies using next-generation sequencing, in addition to the primary phenotype of interest, many clinically important secondary traits are also available, which can be analyzed to map susceptibility genes. Owing to high sequencing costs, most studies use selected samples, and the sampling mechanisms of these studies can be complicated. When the primary and secondary traits are...
