Correction to: Nature Genetics https://doi.org/10.1038/s41588-018-0255-0, published online 29 October 2018.

In the version of this article originally published, there were errors in equations. In the HTML and PDF, the initial term of equation 10 was estimated GCP but should have been estimated standard error, while a ‘hat’ was missing from the first alpha in the second term of the expression at the end of the paragraph following equation (6) in the Methods. In addition, in the abstract in the PDF, a subscript 1 was used instead of a subscript 2 for the final term of the first fourth-moment expression. These errors have been corrected in the HTML, PDF and print versions of the paper.
