On the contribution of genetic heterogeneity to complex traits

2024-03-30

Abstract excerpt

Genetic heterogeneity, where different alleles or loci are responsible for similar phenotypes, reduces the power of genome-wide association studies and can cause misleading results. Although many striking examples have been identified, the general importance of genetic heterogeneity for complex traits is unclear. Here, we use a novel interpretative machine-learning approach to look for evidence of genetic heteroge...
