Dear team,

I am running an association using emmax model. I have generated a kinship file and used that for running. 

Do Epacts remove related samples while running based on the Kinship model?
I have around 6141 samples but I am getting NS|(number of samples) as 3528.
So it seems that its removing related samples.
Could you please confirm and let us know.

regards,
Najeeb

NS is determined by the number of non-missing genotypes in your data. Is it possible that there is a lot of missingness?

No, we don't have a lot of missingness,

Do epacts remove related samples while processing using kinship matrix?

No, it doesn't

Perhaps your phenotypes and genotypes do not overlap very well?
