RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Commentary on “Limitations of GCTA as a solution to the missing heritability problem” JF bioRxiv FD Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory SP 036574 DO 10.1101/036574 A1 Jian Yang A1 S. Hong Lee A1 Naomi R. Wray A1 Michael E. Goddard A1 Peter M. Visscher YR 2016 UL http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2016/01/20/036574.abstract AB In a recent publication entitled “Limitations of GCTA as a solution to the missing heritability problem” Krishna Kumar et al. (2015 PNAS) claim that “GCTA applied to current SNP data cannot produce reliable or stable estimates of heritability”. Here we show that those claims are false and that results presented by Krishna Kumar et al. are in fact entirely consistent with and can be predicted from the theory underlying GCTA.
