Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Analyzing Variance heterogeneity in genome wide association studies (vGWAS) is an emerging approach for detecting genetic loci involved in gene-gene and gene-environment interactions. vGWAS analysis detects variability in phenotype values across genotypes, as opposed to typical GWAS analysis, which detects variations in the mean phenotype value. RESULTS: A handful of vGWAS analysis methods have been...
