[PDF][PDF] GCTA: a tool for genome-wide complex trait analysis

J Yang, SH Lee, ME Goddard, PM Visscher - The American Journal of …, 2011 - cell.com
For most human complex diseases and traits, SNPs identified by genome-wide association
studies (GWAS) explain only a small fraction of the heritability. Here we report a user-friendly …

Common SNPs explain a large proportion of the heritability for human height

…, AC Heath, NG Martin, GW Montgomery, ME Goddard… - Nature …, 2010 - nature.com
SNPs discovered by genome-wide association studies (GWASs) account for only a small

Association analyses of 249,796 individuals reveal 18 new loci associated with body mass index

…, N Amin, AL Dixon, E Fisher, NL Glazer, ME Goddard… - Nature …, 2010 - nature.com
Obesity is globally prevalent and highly heritable, but its underlying genetic factors remain
largely elusive. To identify genetic loci for obesity susceptibility, we examined associations …

Hundreds of variants clustered in genomic loci and biological pathways affect human height
