text: The observation that genetic correlations usually mirror phenotypic correlations is known as "Cheverud's Conjecture" and has been confirmed in animals and humans, and showed they are of similar sizes; for example, in the UK Biobank, of 118 continuous human traits, only 29% of their intercorrelations have opposite signs, and a later analysis of 17 high-quality UKBB traits reported correlation near-unity.
