“…For example, in twin samples, genetic variation underlying the risk of MDD and GAD overlaps completely (Kendler et al, 2007;Roy et al, 1995). Significant genetic correlations have also been reported between MDD and, respectively, PTSD (0.77-1.0), BPD (0.65), alcohol dependence (0.40-0.60), ADHD (0.67-0.77), and nicotine dependence (0.21), and neuroticism (0.43) (Cole et al, 2009;Edwards and Kendler, 2012;Kendler et al, 1993a;Kendler and Myers, 2010;Koenen et al, 2008Koenen et al, , 2003McGuffin et al, 2003;Sartor et al, 2012). Anxiety symptoms and ADHD symptoms also show substantial genetic correlations (0.45-0.58) (Michelini et al, 2015).…”
