GEMMA association results and genetic architecture statistics. The mean variance explained by all genotypes represents the mean of the posterior distribution of the proportion of phenotypic variance explained. The mean variance explained by large-effect SNPs represents the percentage of the total variance explained by only large-effect SNPs (e.g., large-effect SNPs associated with female age at first infection explained 36.5% of the 16.1% total variance explained by all SNPs, or approximately 5.9% of the total variance). Parentheses present 95% posterior credible intervals from the posterior distributions.
