Biobank-scale inference of ancestral recombination graphs enables genealogical analysis of complex traits

ARG-Needle and ASMC-clust algorithms We introduce two algorithms to construct the ARG of a set of samples, called ARG-Needle and ASMC-clust. Both approaches leverage output from the ASMC algorithm11, which takes as input a pair of genotyping array or sequencing samples and outputs a posterior distribution of the TMRCA across…

Why may BOLT-LMM and SAIGE (quantitative, linear-mixed model) yield different results when ran on the absolutely the same dataset?

As a validation experiment, I have run the same GWAS of a quantitative phenotype derived from the UKBiobank, alongside the genomic data from the UKBiobank, once using the program BOLT-LMM and once using SAIGE linear mixed model (with selected quantitative trait tag). I wanted to see if the results would…
