Kernel-based genetic association analysis for microbiome phenotypes identifies host genetic drivers of beta-diversity
2021-10-16
Abstract excerpt
Understanding human genetic influences on the gut microbiota helps elucidate the mechanisms by which genetics affects health outcomes. We propose a novel approach, the covariate-adjusted kernel RV (KRV) framework, to map genetic variants associated with microbiome beta-diversity, which focuses on overall shifts in the microbiota. The proposed KRV framework improves statistical power by capturing intrinsic structur...
