Global genetic covariance estimation #5

Closed sarahcolbert closed 3 years ago

sarahcolbert commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I have successfully used SUPERGNOVA to calculate local genetic covariance estimates, however now I would like to confirm that those sum up to the total genome-wide genetic covariance. Is the global genetic covariance estimate output by the program, or is there an argument I can use to get this estimate? Sorry if this is not the best place to ask the question since it is not an issue with the program/code, I just wasn't sure of the best way to reach out.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best,

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

SUPERGNOVA currently doesn't output global genetic covariance. Our previous method, GNOVA (https://github.com/xtonyjiang/GNOVA) can output global genetic covariance and it has been proved that the global genetic covariance estimation of SUPERGNOVA is almost equivalent to the global genetic covariance of GNOVA. So, I would suggest you use GNOVA to estimation global genetic covariance.

Thank you.

Best,

Yiliang

Hi Yiliang,

Thank you for getting back to me, I will plan on using GNOVA then.

Best,

Sarah
