Lecture 20 - Association Tests • Gibson and Muse, Chapt. 3, 2nd Ed.
Association Populations • Case-Control - unstructured populations • Family-Based - structured populations • Continuous variable - structured and/or unstructured
Pitfalls of Association Tests • Trait h2 • Number of genes effecting trait • Penetrance and expressivity • Extent and uniformity of LD • Genetic heterogeneity • Population stratification • Admixture • Hidden environmental structure • GxE and GxG • Incomplete genotyping
