Rare and common variant discovery by whole-genome sequencing of 101 Thoroughbred racehorses
The Thoroughbred breed was formed by crossing Oriental horse breeds and British native horses and is currently used in horseracing worldwide. In this study, we constructed a single-nucleotide variant (SNV) database using data from 101 Thoroughbred ...

No genetic causal association between systemic lupus erythematosus and COVID-19
ObjectiveEmerging evidence suggests an increased prevalence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the prototype of autoimmune disease, compared to the general population. However, the conclusions were

Fine-mapping genetic associations [PDF]
AbstractWhilst thousands of genetic variants have been associated with human traits, identifying the subset of those variants that are causal requires a further ‘fine-mapping’ step. We review the basic fine-mapping approach, which is computationally fast and requires only summary data, but depends on an assumption of a single causal variant per ...

Genetic model misspecification in genetic association studies [PDF]
The underlying model of the genetic determinant of a trait is generally not known with certainty a priori. Hence, in genetic association studies, a dominant model might be erroneously modelled as additive, an error investigated previously. We explored this question, for candidate gene studies, by evaluating the sample size required to compensate for ...

Genetic Association Studies [PDF]
With the completion of the HapMap project1 and the development of technology that allows the examination of ≥1 million genetic polymorphisms at once, genetic association studies are becoming more comprehensive. This article first provides a brief overview of the rationale for genetic association studies; it then discusses the primary features ...
