1 Sequence Kernel Association Tests for the Combined Effect of Rare and Common Variants

2 Figure 1 Power of the Burden-C Test with Different Frequency Thresholds to Separate Rare from Common Variants Power (α = 2.5 × 10−6) of using different frequency thresholds to separate rare and common variants (fixed values 0.005, 0.01, and 0.05 versus 1/2n) for the proposed combination method burden-C for model 1 (in Table S1) and for n = 500, 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 in a region of size 25 kb. The proportion of associated variants (PC) in the region is 30%. The sample-dependent threshold 1/2n is: 0.03 (n = 500), 0.02 (n = 1,000), (n = 2,000), and 0.01 (n = 5,000).

3 Figure 2 Power for Models 1–3 in 25 kb Regions
Power (α = 2.5 × 10−6) of the tests in Table 1 for a region of size 25 kb (l = 25 kb) across disease models 1–3 in Table 2 for n = 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 and two different values for the proportion of associated variants in a region: 10% (i.e., PC = 0.1) or 30% (i.e., PC = 0.3).

4 Figure 3 Power for Models 4–6 in 25 kb Regions
Power (α = 2.5 × 10−6) of the tests in Table 1 for a region of size 25 kb (l = 25 kb) across disease models 4–6 in Table 2 for n = 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 and two different values for the proportion of associated variants in a region: 10% (i.e., PC = 0.1) or 30% (i.e., PC = 0.3).

5 Figure A1 Variance Explained by Rare versus Common Risk-Associated Variants Variance explained by common associated variants versus rare associated variants in a 25 kb region (based on 100 random regions). Ten percent of all variants in the region are associated with the trait. Each dot corresponds to one random 25 kb region. Variance explained by common variants (MAF > 1/2n) is on the y axis, and variance explained by rare variants (MAF < 1/2n) is on the x axis.
