Accuracy of risk prediction of disease risk in a population sample using a set of predictive SNPs selected after a genome-wide association study of N each of cases and controls. A CDCV disease model is assumed with population prevalence (K) and heritability (h2) of the disease. Results for the neutral model were similar. Mean of 100 simulation replicates. The legend lists the data series in their order at 1000 risk loci.
