Germline mutations in the major melanoma susceptibility gene CDKN2A explain genetic predisposition in only 10–40% of melanoma‐prone families. In our study we comprehensively characterized 488 melanoma cases from 451 non‐CDKN2A/CDK4 families for mutations

Susceptibility Genes to Plant Viruses
Plant viruses use cellular factors and resources to replicate and move. Plants respond to viral infection by several mechanisms, including innate immunity, autophagy, and gene silencing, that viruses must evade or suppress.

The use of pathogen-resistant cultivars is expected to increase yield and decrease fungicide use in agriculture. However, in potato breeding, increased resistance obtained via resistance genes (R-genes) is hampered because R-gene(s) are often specific ...

Susceptibility genes of hyperuricemia and gout
Gout is a chronic metabolic disease that seriously affects human health. It is also a major challenge facing the world, which has brought a heavy burden to patients and society. Hyperuricemia (HUA) is the most important risk factor for gout.

Genetic epidemiology of breast cancer in CYPRUS: A case -control study of DNA repair genes [PDF]
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.The occurrence of early-onset breast cancer (EOBC) has been associated with germline mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.
