Partitioned heritability. (a) Heritability estimates for each chromosome were significantly correlated with chromosome length (P = 4.9 × 10−4). (b) For ALS, there was a clear trend where more heritability was explained by the low-frequency alleles. This effect was still observed when, for a fair comparison between ALS and a previous study partitioning heritability for schizophrenia (SCZ) using identical methods22, SNPs present in HapMap 3 (HM3) were included. Error bars correspond to standard errors.
