Genome- and Transcriptome-wide Association Studies to Discover Candidate Genes for Diverse Root Phenotypes in Cultivated Rice

open access: yesRice, 2023
Root system architecture plays a crucial role in nutrient and water absorption during rice production. Genetic improvement of the rice root system requires elucidating its genetic control.

Genome-wide association studies in mice [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Genetics, 2012
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have transformed the field of human genetics and have led to the discovery of hundreds of genes that are implicated in human disease. The technological advances that drove this revolution are now poised to transform genetic studies in model organisms, including mice.

Transcriptome-wide association study of multiple myeloma identifies candidate susceptibility genes

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2019
Background While genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of multiple myeloma (MM) have identified variants at 23 regions influencing risk, the genes underlying these associations are largely unknown. To identify candidate causal genes at these regions and

Genome-wide association study of Tourette Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tourette Syndrome (TS) is a developmental disorder that has one of the highest familial recurrence rates among neuropsychiatric diseases with complex inheritance. However, the identification of definitive TS susceptibility genes remains elusive. Here, we

Genome-wide association studies in Plasmodiumspecies [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2010
Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) look for correlations between traits of interest and genetic markers spread throughout the genome. A recent study in BMC Genetics has found that populations of the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax should be amenable to GWAS searching for a genetic basis of parasite pathogenicity.

Guidelines for Genome-Wide Association Studies

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revolutionized human genetics. They have led to the identification of thousands of loci that affect both normal variation and susceptibility to disease, and have clarified our understanding of the genetic architecture of complex traits.

Genome-Wide Association Study reveals genetic risk underlying Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2009
We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 1,713 individuals of European ancestry with Parkinson's disease (PD) and 3,978 controls. After replication in 3,361 cases and 4,573 controls, we observed two strong association signals, one in the ...

Genome-wide association study of Tourette's syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2012
Tourette's syndrome (TS) is a developmental disorder that has one of the highest familial recurrence rates among neuropsychiatric diseases with complex inheritance. However, the identification of definitive TS susceptibility genes remains elusive. Here, we report the first genome-wide association study (GWAS) of TS in 1285 cases and 4964 ancestry ...

Selecting Closely-Linked SNPs Based on Local Epistatic Effects for Haplotype Construction Improves Power of Association Mapping

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have gained central importance for the identification of candidate loci underlying complex traits. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers are mostly used as genetic variants for the analysis of genotype ...

A large multi-ethnic genome-wide association study identifies novel genetic loci for intraocular pressure. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. IOP heritability has been estimated to up to 67%, and to date only 11 IOP loci have been reported, accounting for 1.5% of IOP variability.
