Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of Mesocotyl Length for Direct Seeding in Rice
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.

Unifying candidate gene and GWAS Approaches in Asthma. [PDF]
The first genome wide association study (GWAS) for childhood asthma identified a novel major susceptibility locus on chromosome 17q21 harboring the ORMDL3 gene, but the role of previous asthma candidate genes was not specifically analyzed in this GWAS ...

Two novel loci, COBL and SLC10A2, for Alzheimer's disease in African Americans [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: African Americans' (AAs) late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) genetic risk profile is incompletely understood. Including clinical covariates in genetic analyses using informed conditioning might improve study power.

nf-gwas-pipeline: A Nextflow Genome-Wide Association Study Pipeline [PDF]
A tool for conducting Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) in a systematic, automated and reproducible manner is overdue. We developed an automated GWAS pipeline by combining multiple analysis tools - including bcftools, vcftools, the R packages SNPRelate/GENESIS/GMMAT and ANNOVAR - through Nextflow, which is a portable, flexible, and reproducible ...
