Using adopted individuals to partition maternal genetic effects into prenatal and postnatal effects on offspring phenotypes

2021-08-06

Abstract excerpt

Maternal genetic effects can be defined as the effect of a mother’s genotype on the phenotype of her offspring, independent of the offspring’s genotype. Maternal genetic effects can act via the intrauterine environment during pregnancy and/or via the postnatal environment. In this manuscript, we present a simple extension to the basic adoption design that uses structural equation modelling (SEM) to partition mater...
