Abstract:Regional heritability mapping (RHM) is a method that estimates the heritability of genomic segments that may contain both common and rare variants affecting a complex trait. We compared three RHM methods: SNP-RHM, which uses genomic relationship matrices (GRMs) based on SNP genotypes; Hap-RHM, which uses GRMs based on haplotypes; and SNHap-RHM, which uses both SNP-based and haplotype-based GRMs jointly. We applied these methods to data from a wild population of sheep, analysed eleven polygenic morphometric tra… Show more
