  1. Genetic association between PRSs for top 20 microbiome genera and AD diagnosis from PRSice-2 “best-fit” model. The association from the “best-fit” threshold was generated from PRSice-2 with a range of p-value thresholds from 5 × 10−8 to 1 and incremental interval of 5 × 10−5; R2: Variance explained by the PRS model; P: p-value of model fit for the association; Coeff: Coefficient of the model; SE: standard error; # of SNPs: Number of SNPs included in the model at the specified threshold. Genera in bold are three genera identified to have a genetically significant association with AD in both discovery and replicate samples. *: indicated ten genera that have the same direction in both discovery and replicate samples. Seven genera, originally identified to be significantly associated with AD in the discovery sample, did not survive the replicate analysis due to the opposite direction in the replicate sample.
