From: E-GWAS: an ensemble-like GWAS strategy that provides effective control over false positive rates without decreasing true positives

Performance of different methods before and after the permutation test. E-GWAS and five other methods including BSLMM, MLMM, mrMLM, BLINK, and FarmCPU were used to analyze a simulated phenotype (simulated trait with a heritability of 0.6 controlled by 100 QTN). a The Venn Diagram shows the overlapping of the true QTN detected by these methods. MLMM specifically detected one true QTN. The bar graphs in b, c separately exhibit the difference in the number of true and false QTN between single methods and E-GWAS before and after running the permutation test. Red and blue colors represent the number of QTN before and after filtering by the permutation test
