Dissecting indirect genetic effects from peers in laboratory mice
Abstract Background The phenotype of an individual can be affected not only by the individual’s own genotypes, known as direct genetic effects (DGE), but also by genotypes of interacting partners, indirect genetic effects (IGE). IGE have been detected using polygenic models in multiple species, incl...
