Assuming that we have the following SNP and phenotype data, is the SNP significantly associated with the phenotype?
So if I attempt this question using their method I put the data of genotype and phenotype into a data frame in R then use lm() to do linear regression and ...

Adjusting phenotypes by regressing out covariates
I'm trying to use the bfGWAS tool, which analyses GWAS data and integrates functional annotations to identify casual SNPs (paper and
github). In the user manual, it states:
We recommend first ...

How to deal with correlated SNPs in GWAS?
I have population SNP data in VCF format, and I found that some SNPs have a great similarity across samples(> 99%). For example:
...

Is there any difference between SNPs 'AG' and 'GA' in association analyses?
I am using plink to check the association between a phenotype and the SNPs of a gene. plink says the phenotype is significantly associated with a SNP on that gene, and when I check the SNP alleles, ...

Filtering imputed GWAS SNPs based on a MAF difference of 10%
There are many posts on the web regarding QC steps pre and post-imputation.
Does applying below (new?) 10% MAF difference rule make sense, pitfalls?
Here is the process:
Get MAF for imputed set, ...
