to an even more prominent bias toward identification of larger genes in this way; 8a) “Template” GWA approaches focus on metaanalyses as means to evaluate convergence of data from single SNPs across many independent samples; 8b) As more such data becomes available, metaanalyses can be applied to the current results. However, in the relative absence of other GWA datasets (but see below), metaanalyses are of more limited utility.
