Significant differences in allele frequencies between cases and controls are taken as evidence for involvement of an allele in disease susceptibility. A common alternative to case-control GWA studies is the analysis of quantitative phenotypic data eg. Height or biomarker concentrations or even gene expression. The examination of statistical correlation between a persons genetic marker genotype with his phenotype or disease status has become a common task in human genetics and human disease studies.
