Hi,
I want to use a pedigree (stored in a PLINK fam file) as a GRM for GCTA. I've computed one using the kinship2 R package, and am converting it into text-based input for GCTA. I noticed one of the requirements for the input format is the number of non-missing SNPs that went into the calculation --- how is this number used by GCTA? Will it affect my results since my choice will be arbitrary in this case?
