PolyQTL: Bayesian multiple eQTL detection with control for population structure and sample relatedness.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: Expression quantitative loci (eQTL) are being used widely to annotate and interpret GWAS hits. Recent studies have demonstrated that individual gene expression is often regulated by multiple independent cis-acting eQTL. Diverse methods, frequentist and Bayesian, have already been developed to simultaneously detect and fine-map such multiple eQTL, but most of these ignore sample relatedness and...
