The omnigenic model and polygenic prediction of complex traits.

Abstract excerpt

The omnigenic model was proposed as a framework to understand the highly polygenic architecture of complex traits revealed by genome-wide association studies (GWASs). I argue that this model also explains recent observations about cross-population genetic effects, specifically the low transferability of polygenic scores and the lack of clear evidence for polygenic selection. In particular, the omnigenic model...
