Description:
Simulate complex traits given a SNP genotype matrix and model parameters (the desired heritability, number of causal loci, and either the true ancestral allele frequencies used to generate the genotypes or the mean kinship for a real dataset).Emphasis on avoiding common biases due to the use of estimated allele frequencies.The code selects random loci to be causal, constructs coefficients for these loci and random independent non-genetic effects, and can optionally generate random group effects.Traits can follow three models: random coefficients, fixed effect sizes, and infinitesimal (multivariate normal).GWAS method benchmarking functions are also provided.Described in Yao and Ochoa (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.03.25.485885>.
