Causal effects on complex traits are similar across segments of different continental ancestries within admixed individuals

2022-08-18

Abstract excerpt

Individuals of admixed ancestries (e.g., African Americans) inherit a mosaic of ancestry segments (local ancestry) originating from multiple continental ancestral populations. Their genomic diversity offers the unique opportunity of investigating genetic effects on disease across multiple ancestries within the same population. Quantifying the similarity in causal effects across local ancestries is paramount to stu...
