Table 2: Comparison of SNP-heritability (h^SNP2) of Height and BMI utilizing widely used approaches:

N represents the number of samples used for the analyses; SC, MS, LDMS-R, LDMS-I represent single component, MAF stratified, Regional LD scores and MAF stratified, SNP LD score and MAF stratified, respectively. P-values were calculated using one sided z test.
