(see solid line Figure 3). However, their representation was of broad sense heritability on the observed scale (i.e. ) which is a little used measure of heritability because of its dependence on disease prevalence [13]. Here we show (Figure 2 and equation 3) the relationship between AUCmax and the more commonly used measure of heritability, the heritability of liability (i.e., ) We show that AUCmax is dependent on both and disease prevalence (i.e. K).
