A latent variable partial least squares path modeling approach to regional association and polygenic effect with applications to a human obesity study.
Genetic association studies are now routinely used to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked with human diseases or traits through single SNP-single trait tests. Here we introduced partial least squares path modeling (PLSPM) for association between single or multiple SNPs and a laten...
