[GenABEL-dev] new topic for Journal Club

[Maria G]

Hi everybody, 

I would suggest to move the following topic (pls. see the link and text below) from the "Forum" to the "Journal Club" for better discussion. 
The title could be something like "Methodology for prediction equations of phenotypic data, based on SNP"

What would you say?

best

Hi
I'm working on a methodology for developing prediction equations of phenotypic data, based on SNPs, calculated with the lm function.
I saw that it's possible in the GenABEL tutorial.

I'm wondering if someone has experience in this domain, or if there is some interresting bibliography on it (I don't find publications with GenABEL on prediction model for phenotype based on SNPs) ? My interest is to demonstrate that this type of methodology, using lm and GenABEL, could be reliable for the project.

Thanks
