Abstract excerpt
In this study, we suggested a hypothesis test method that was robust to different genotype encodings in a genome-wide association analysis of continuous traits. When the population stratification is corrected for using a method based on principal component analysis, ordinally (or categorically) encoded genotypes are adjusted and turn into continuous values. Due to the adjustment of the encoded genotype, the...
