Adjusted sequence kernel association test for rare variants controlling for cryptic and family relatedness.

Abstract excerpt

Recent progress in sequencing technologies makes it possible to identify rare and unique variants that may be associated with complex traits. However, the results of such efforts depend crucially on the use of efficient statistical methods and study designs. Although family-based designs might enrich a data set for familial rare disease variants, most existing rare variant association approaches assume...
