Copy number variation in the bovine genome [PDF]
Background Copy number variations (CNVs), which represent a significant source of genetic diversity in mammals, have been shown to be associated with phenotypes of clinical relevance and to be causative of disease.

Copy number variation across European populations. [PDF]
Genome analysis provides a powerful approach to test for evidence of genetic variation within and between geographical regions and local populations. Copy number variants which comprise insertions, deletions and duplications of genomic sequence provide ...

Copy Number Variations and Schizophrenia
Abstract Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder with genetic and environmental factors involved in its aetiology. Genetic liability contributing to the development of schizophrenia is a subject of extensive research activity, as reliable data regarding its aetiology would enable the improvement of its therapy and the development of new methods ...

Copy number variation and neuropsychiatric illness [PDF]
Copy number variants (CNVs) at specific loci have been identified as important risk factors for several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability (ID) and depression. These CNVs are individually rare (

Copy Number Variation in Domestication [PDF]
Domesticated plants have long served as excellent models for studying evolution. Many genes and mutations underlying important domestication traits have been identified, and most causal mutations appear to be SNPs. Copy number variation (CNV) is an important source of genetic variation that has been largely neglected in studies of domestication ...

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 and cancer [PDF]
DNA copy number variations (CNVs) are an important component of genetic variation, affecting a greater fraction of the genome than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The advent of high-resolution SNP arrays has made it possible to identify CNVs. Characterization of widespread constitutional (germline) CNVs has provided insight into their role in ...

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 ...

An association between copy number variation of enhancer involved in craniofacial development and biogeographic ancestry [PDF]
Human facial morphology is a combination of many complex traits and is determined by a large number of genes and enhancers. Here, we report a Copy Number Variation (CNV) study of enhancer hs1431 in populations of Central European and South Siberian ...
