Univariate SNP-heritability [h2SNP (SE)] of AD factor for EAs and AAs.

h2SNP Gene set A h2SNP Gene set B Total SNP-Heritability
European Ancestry 0.17 (0.05)*** 0.10 (0.04)** 0.27 (0.05)a
African Ancestry 0.24 (0.15)* 0.07 (0.14) 0.30 (0.15)a

Note: Table presenting the univariate SNP-heritability of AD factors for EAs and AAs using subsets of SNPs (Gene set A comprises SNPs that survive within-ancestral-group quality control procedures [QC] across both populations; Gene set B includes SNPs that differentially survive QC across ancestral groups; Total SNP-heritability reflects the genomewide effects of Gene sets A & B within each ancestral group). Notations:

*

p < 0.05,

**

p < 0.01,

***

p < 0.001;

a

significance test not available for total heritability in model, as the likelihood ratio test is conducted only on the specific variance components within the model.
