Separate means five analysis were performed separately for traits under each MAF bin, joint means all five MAF categories were considered in a single analysis, values in the parentheses denote standard error of h2 estimates, values in the square brackets represent the proportion of SNPs in each MAF category. 1See Table 2 for trait abbreviations.
