Background Glycogen storage disease (GSD) is a rare inborn error of the synthesis or degradation of glycogen metabolism. GSD1, the most common type of GSD, is categorized into GSD1a and GSD1b which caused by the deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6PC)

Genomic Monitoring of a Reintroduced Butterfly Uncovers Contrasting Founder Lineage Survival
ABSTRACT Genetic factors can have a major influence on both short‐ and long‐term success of reintroductions. Genomic monitoring can give a range of insights into the early life of a reintroduced population and ultimately can help to avoid wasting limited conservation resources.

It is well known that inbreeding increases the risk of recessive monogenic diseases, but it is less certain whether it contributes to the etiology of complex diseases such as schizophrenia.

Clinical applications of Genome Polymorphism Scans
Applications of Genome Polymorphism Scans range from the relatively simple such as gender determination and confirmation of biological relationships, to the relatively complex such as determination of autozygosity and propagation of genetic information ...

Recent Consanguinity and Outbred Autozygosity Are Associated With Increased Risk of Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Prior work in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) has resulted in discrepant findings as to whether recent consanguinity and outbred autozygosity are associated with LOAD risk.

Autozygosity mapping of a large consanguineous Pakistani family reveals a novel non-syndromic autosomal recessive mental retardation locus on 11p15-tel [PDF]
Autosomal recessive inherited mental retardation is an extremely heterogeneous disease and accounts for approximately 25% of all non-syndromic mental retardation cases.

Recent artificial selection in U.S. Jersey cattle impacts autozygosity levels of specific genomic regions [PDF]
Background: Genome signatures of artificial selection in U.S. Jersey cattle were identified by examining changes in haplotype homozygosity for a resource population of animals born between 1953 and 2007.

Pedigree of Standard Schnauzers used for linkage analysis and autozygosity mapping. [PDF]
Filled symbols represent dogs with leukodystrophy. For a better overview, the pedigree was drawn only with a subset of the closely related dogs. Two litters with a total of four affected dogs and their parents were used for linkage analysis.
