Genome-wide association, prediction and heritability in bacteria with application to Streptococcus pneumoniae

Whole-genome sequencing has facilitated genome-wide analyses of association, prediction and heritability in many organisms. However, such analyses in bacteria are still in their infancy, being limited by difficulties including genome plasticity and strong population structure. Here we propose a suit...
