GWAS of 126,559 individuals identifies genetic variants associated with educational attainment

CA Rietveld, SE Medland, J Derringer, J Yang, T Esko… - science, 2013 - science.org
A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of educational attainment was conducted in a
discovery sample of 101,069 individuals and a replication sample of 25,490. Three
independent single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are genome-wide significant
(rs9320913, rs11584700, rs4851266), and all three replicate. Estimated effects sizes are
small (coefficient of determination R 2≈ 0.02%), approximately 1 month of schooling per
allele. A linear polygenic score from all measured SNPs accounts for≈ 2% of the variance in …
