Differential gene expression analysis based on linear mixed model corrects false positive inflation for studying quantitative traits.

Abstract excerpt

Differential gene expression (DGE) analysis has been widely employed to identify genes expressed differentially with respect to a trait of interest using RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data. Recent RNA-Seq data with large samples pose challenges to existing DGE methods, which were mainly developed for dichotomous traits and small sample sizes. Especially, existing DGE methods are likely to result in inflated false...
