The role of mutation rate variation and genetic diversity in the architecture of human disease [PDF]

, 2013
Background We have investigated the role that the mutation rate and the structure of genetic variation at a locus play in determining whether a gene is involved in disease.

Genetic and epigenetic mechanisms influencing acute to chronic postsurgical pain transitions in pediatrics: Preclinical to clinical evidence

Canadian Journal of Pain, 2021
Background Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in children remains an important problem with no effective preventive or therapeutic strategies. Recently, genomic underpinnings explaining additional interindividual risk beyond psychological factors have been

Resequencing of 558 Chinese mungbean landraces identifies genetic loci associated with key agronomic traits

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Mungbean is a warm-season annual food legume and plays important role in supplying food and nutritional security in many tropical countries. However, the genetic basis of its agronomic traits remains poorly understood.

Genome wide association study of growth and feed efficiency traits in rabbits

World Rabbit Science, 2023
Feed efficiency is a major production trait in animal genetic breeding schemes. To further investigate the genetic control of feed efficiency in rabbits, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for growth and feed efficiency on 679 rabbits ...

Contribution of common and rare variants to bipolar disorder susceptibility in extended pedigrees from population isolates. [PDF]

, 2020
Current evidence from case/control studies indicates that genetic risk for psychiatric disorders derives primarily from numerous common variants, each with a small phenotypic impact. The literature describing apparent segregation of bipolar disorder (BP)

Genome-wide association study of phenotypes measuring progression from first cocaine or opioid use to dependence reveals novel risk genes

Exploration of Medicine, 2021
Aim: Substance use disorders (SUD) result in substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Opioids, and to a lesser extent cocaine, contribute to a large percentage of this health burden.
