Testing Implications of the Omnigenic Model for the Genetic Analysis of Loci Identified through Genome-wide Association.

Abstract excerpt

Organismal phenotypes usually have a quantitative distribution, and their genetic architecture can be studied by genome-wide association (GWA) mapping approaches. In most of such studies, it has become clear that many genes of moderate or small effects contribute to the phenotype.1-4 Hence, the attention has turned toward the loci falling below the GWA cut-off, which may contribute to the phenotype through...
