A continuously updated list of bad genetics studies

https://massivesci.com/notes/gwas-complex-behavior-bad-biorx...

the only reason why not most GWASare listed there is because it does not pay to prove that a GWAS is a nonsense,

it is way too much work to disprove, and you don't get paid/supported for doing so

Were any of those particular papers disproven, retracted or were not able to be reproduced?

This paper , "Genome-wide association studies: the good, the bad and the ugly" : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4952840/ claims "the vast majority of associations identified by GWASs are extremely robust statistically and are reproducible in additional studies.".
