Part of Variance Explained (PVE) by population structure, cofactors and kinship, the number of associations without cofactors, the number of significant cofactors, the PVE by cofactors, and the ratio PVE by kinship/PVE by cofactors and kinship are showed. Data obtained for individual collections and the whole populations are provided.
