Evaluating the estimation of genetic correlation and heritability using summary statistics.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG - 1 Nov 2021

Zhang Ju, Schumacher Fredrick R

Abstract excerpt

While novel statistical methods quantifying the shared heritability of traits and diseases between ancestral distinct populations have been recently proposed, a thorough evaluation of these approaches under differing circumstances remain elusive. Brown et al.2016 proposed the method Popcorn to estimate the shared heritability, i.e. genetic correlation, using only summary statistics. Here, we evaluate Popcorn...
