Efficient variance components analysis across millions of genomes
Variance components analysis may be used for a variety of applications including heritability estimation and association mapping. Here, the authors present a computationally efficient method, scalable to extremely large GWAS datasets, and use it for heritabilty analysis of 22 traits from UK Biobank
