Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to investigate the effects of incidence rate, heritability, and polygenic variance on the statistical power of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for threshold traits. Different incidence rates of threshold trait (1, 3, 5, 10, 25, 40, 50, 60, 75 and 90%), heritability (10 and 25%), and polygenic variance ratio (0 and 25%) were simulated separately for common (MAF ≥ 0.05), low-frequency...
