Concurrent outcomes from multiple approaches of epistasis analysis for human body mass index associated loci provide insights into obesity biology
Abstract Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have focused on elucidating the genetic architecture of complex traits by assessing single variant effects in additive genetic models, albeit explaining a fraction of the trait heritability. Epistasis has recently emerged as one of the intrinsic mechan...
