Abstract

SUMMARY: In this report, we introduce an R package KMgene for performing gene-based association tests for familial, multivariate or longitudinal traits using kernel machine (KM) regression under a generalized linear mixed model framework. Extensive simulations were performed to evaluate the validity of the approaches implemented in KMgene. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/KMgene. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
