Copy number variation in the horse genome. [PDF]
We constructed a 400K WG tiling oligoarray for the horse and applied it for the discovery of copy number variations (CNVs) in 38 normal horses of 16 diverse breeds, and the Przewalski horse.

Copy number variations and stroke [PDF]
Stroke is the third leading cause of death worldwide after heart disease and all forms of cancers. Monogenic disorders, genetic, and environmental risk factors contribute to damaging cerebral blood vessels and, consequently, cause stroke. Developments in genomic research led to the discovery of numerous copy number variants (CNVs) that have been ...

Copy number variations among silkworms [PDF]
Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNVs), which are important source for genetic and phenotypic variation, have been shown to be associated with disease as well as important QTLs, especially in domesticated animals. However, little is known about the CNVs in silkworm. Results

Copy Number Variation in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Copy number variation contributes substantially to human evolution, normal phenotypic variation, and human disease (Malhotra and Sebat, 2012). To date, thousands of different genomic duplications and deletions, each spanning hundreds to millions of basepairs, have been mapped genome-wide, and collectively account for a significant fraction of human ...

Copy number variation in African Americans
Background Copy number variants (CNVs) have been identified in several studies to be associated with complex diseases. It is important, therefore, to understand the distribution of CNVs within and among populations.

Copy Number Variation Disorders [PDF]
Copy number variation (CNV) disorders arise from the dosage imbalance of one or more gene(s), resulting from deletions, duplications or other genomic rearrangements that lead to the loss or gain of genetic material. Several disorders, characterized by multiple birth defects and neurodevelopmental abnormalities, have been associated with relatively ...

Genetic association studies of copy-number variation: should assignment of copy number states precede testing? [PDF]
Recently, structural variation in the genome has been implicated in many complex diseases. Using genomewide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, researchers are able to investigate the impact not only of SNP variation, but also of copy-number ...

Copy Number Variation Analysis of Euploid Pregnancy Loss
Objectives: Copy number variant (CNV) is believed to be the potential genetic cause of pregnancy loss. However, CNVs less than 3 Mb in euploid products of conceptions (POCs) remain largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the features
