Null simulation: empirical type-I error from 100 simulated data sets.
| Cases | Error rates per one million SNPs of different thresholds after Bonferroni correction | ||
| threshold = 0.1 | threshold = 0.2 | threshold = 0.3 | |
| Case 1 | 11 | 18 | 28 |
| Case 2 | 3.08 | 4.89 | 7.47 |
The nominal type-I error rates should be 10, 20, and 30 per one million SNPs for significance thresholds at 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3, respectively.
