Microhaplotype Methods Enable Relationship Inference in a Bottlenecked Mammalian Species

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) are among the most genetically depauperate mammals in the world. A near‐total population bottleneck in the 19th century, coupled with the breeding system of extreme polygyny, has challenged efforts to estimate individual reproductive success with genetic methods.

Associations of plasma sex‐related hormone and protein levels and alcohol dependence

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Aims Sex‐related hormones and proteins may underlie sex differences in alcohol use disorder characteristics and consequences. Previous reports suggest steroid sex hormones may influence alcohol consumption behaviors while proteins that regulate their circulation levels are rarely investigated.

Methods for multiancestry genome‐wide association study meta‐analysis

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) have significantly enhanced our understanding of the genetic basis of complex diseases. Despite the technological advancements, gaps in our understanding remain, partly due to small effect sizes and inadequate coverage of genetic variation.

The molecular basis of lactase persistence: Linking genetics and epigenetics

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
Abstract Lactase persistence (LP) — the genetic trait that determines the continued expression of the enzyme lactase into adulthood — has undergone recent, rapid positive selection since the advent of animal domestication and dairying in some human populations.

Opportunities and Challenges of Population Pharmacogenomics

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pharmacological responses can vary significantly among patients from different ethnogeographic backgrounds. This variability can, at least in part, be attributed to population‐specific genetic patterns in genes involved in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, as well as in genes associated with drug‐induced toxicity ...

Recent Statistical Innovations in Human Genetics

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review three areas of human genetics that have been developed in the past few decades, in which statistical innovation has made a crucial contribution with recent important advances and the potential for further rapid progress. The first topic is the development of mathematical models for the genealogy underlying samples of genome‐wide ...
