genome-wide significant SNPs associated_with height

10% for height

our PGSs based on GWS SNPs explain around 33% ... of height variance between siblings

To quantify the proportion of height variance that is explained by GWS SNPs identified in our METAFE...

PGSs based on GWS SNPs explain around 33% of height variance between siblings

Thus, the observed GWS height associations are substantially shared across major ancestral groups...

identify 6,000–7,000 GWS SNPs explaining more than 90% of the SNP-based heritability of height

Our study provides a powerful genetic predictor of height based on 12,111 GWS SNPs

explained up to 40% of the inter-individual variation in height in independent European-ancestry samples using GWS SNPs alone

polygenic scores (PGSs) for height on the basis of GWS SNPs.
