Abstract excerpt
Current research suggests that hundreds to thousands of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with small to modest effect sizes contribute to the genetic basis of many disorders, a phenomenon labeled as polygenicity. Additionally, many such disorders demonstrate polygenic overlap, in which risk alleles are shared at associated genetic loci. A simple strategy to detect polygenic overlap between two phenotypes is...
