Identifying the genetic basis and molecular mechanisms underlying phenotypic correlation between complex human traits using a gene-based approach

2020-12-02

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic correlations between complex human traits have long been observed based on epidemiological studies. However, the genetic basis and underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. The recent accumulation of GWAS data has made it possible to analyze the genetic similarity between human traits through comparative analysis. Here we developed a gene-based approach to measure genetic similarity between a pair of t...
