Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of dental caries in diverse populations [PDF]
BMC Oral Health, 2021 Background Dental caries is one of the most common chronic diseases and is influenced by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. Most previous genetic studies of caries have focused on identifying genes that contribute to dental caries ...

Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of Mesocotyl Length for Direct Seeding in Rice
Agronomy, 2021 Direct seeding is considered an efficient cultivation technology that reduces water use and labor costs. Mesocotyl length is one of the significant traits in cultivation; long mesocotyl is beneficial for the rate and uniformity of seedling emergence.

The Analysis of a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of Overweight and Obesity in Psoriasis. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2022 There is evidence that the concomitance of psoriasis and obesity may originate from the interplay between multiple genetic pathways and involve gene–gene interactions. The aim of this study was to compare the genetic background related to obesity among psoriatic patients versus healthy controls by means of a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS).

Microbial genome-wide association studies: lessons from human GWAS [PDF]
Nature Reviews Genetics, 2016 Abstract The reduced costs of sequencing have led to the availability of whole genome sequences for a large number of microorganisms, enabling the application of microbial genome wide association studies (GWAS). Given the successes of human GWAS in understanding disease aetiology and identifying potential drug targets, microbial GWAS is

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and their importance in asthma
Allergologia Et Immunopathologia, 2015 Asthma is a complex disease determined by the interaction of different genes and environmental factors. The first genetic investigations in asthma were candidate gene association studies and linkage studies. In recent years research has focused on association studies that scan the entire genome without any prior conditioning hypothesis: the so-called ...

Accounting for multiple comparisons in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2010 Background As we enter an era when testing millions of SNPs in a single gene association study will become the standard, consideration of multiple comparisons is an essential part of determining statistical significance.

Dissecting the genetic heterogeneity of gastric cancerResearch in context
EBioMedicine, 2023 Summary: Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is clinically heterogenous according to location (cardia/non-cardia) and histopathology (diffuse/intestinal). We aimed to characterize the genetic risk architecture of GC according to its subtypes.
