a

Significance levels for small-scale study: αS1 = 0.05 and αS2 = 0.05.

b

Significance levels for large-scale study: αS1 = 2.5 × 10−6 and αS2 = 2.5 × 10−6.

c

The impact of different combinations of false-positive/false-negative rate, assay success rate, and genotyping and sequencing error rate ratio on the replication power is examined.

d

The power was empirically estimated based upon 10,000 replicates.
