First create a variable that has a value of 1 for genotypes with at least 1 T allele, and 0 for the genotype that is CC

To test the 2 degree of freedom model, can use ANOVA (analysis of variance), which compares the full model to the null model. First need to remove missing data, so comparing models on the same dataset
