Amplification is the Primary Mode of Gene-by-Sex Interaction in Complex Human Traits

Carrie Zhu, Matthew J. Ming, Jared M. Cole…·Arbel Harpak

The paper identifies amplification as the main mechanism of gene-by-sex interactions in complex human traits, showing sex differences in genetic effect magnitudes rather than variant identity.
