FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population
Nature, 2023 Genome-wide association studies of individuals from an isolated population (data from the Finnish biobank study FinnGen) and consequent meta-analyses facilitate the identification of previously unknown coding variant associations for both rare and common

Association of the NEGR1 rs2815752 with obesity and related traits in Pakistani females
Upsala Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020 Introduction: The variant NEGR1 rs2815752 has recently been linked with obesity in Caucasians. However, a very limited number of studies have examined the association of the NEGR1 rs2815752 with overweight/obesity in non-Caucasians with no such study ...

Genetic model misspecification in genetic association studies [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2017 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 ...

A review of kernel methods for genetic association studies
Genetic Epidemiology, 2019 Evaluating the association of multiple genetic variants with a trait of interest by use of kernel‐based methods has made a significant impact on how genetic association analyses are conducted. An advantage of kernel methods is that they tend to be robust

MetaGenyo: a web tool for meta-analysis of genetic association studies
BMC Bioinformatics, 2017 Genetic association studies (GAS) aims to evaluate the association between genetic variants and phenotypes. In the last few years, the number of this type of study has increased exponentially, but the results are not always reproducible due to ...

Diagnostics, 2019 Cigarette smoking is influenced by nicotine’s effects on dopaminergic activity, which appear to be moderated by genetic variation, particularly a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR, 48 bp) polymorphism in the third exon of the dopamine receptor ...

Genome-wide association analysis of plasma lipidome identifies 495 genetic associations
medRxiv, 2023 Human plasma lipidome captures risk for cardio-metabolic diseases. To discover new lipid-associated variants and understand link between lipid species and cardiometabolic disorders, we performed univariate and multivariate genome-wide analyses of 179 ...

Conservation of Animal Genetic Resources in the Danubian Valley
Scientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023 The overall aim of gene conservation is the preservation of animal genetic resources (AnGR). Since the well balanced, diverse and healthy supply of food is a major element of the national food sovereignty, hence successful animal production is not ...
