Polymorphisms in leucine-rich repeat genes are associated with autism spectrum disorder susceptibility in populations of European ancestry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorders which are characteristically comprised of impairments in social interaction, communication and restricted interests/behaviours.

Transcriptome-Wide Association Studies and Integration Analysis of mRNA Expression Profiles Identify Candidate Genes and Pathways Associated With Ankylosing Spondylitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
This study aimed to identify susceptibility genes and pathways associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) by integrating whole transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) analysis and mRNA expression profiling data.

The genetics of infectious disease susceptibility: has the evidence for epistasis been overestimated? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interactions amongst genes, known as epistasis, are assumed to make a substantial contribution to the genetic variation in infectious disease susceptibility, but this claim is controversial.

Mining Grapevine Downy Mildew Susceptibility Genes: A Resource for Genomics-Based Breeding and Tailored Gene Editing

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Several pathogens continuously threaten viticulture worldwide. Until now, the investigation on resistance loci has been the main trend to understand the interaction between grapevine and the mildew causal agents.

Identification of candidate genes for dyslexia susceptibility on chromosome 18 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Six independent studies have identified linkage to chromosome 18 for developmental dyslexia or general reading ability. Until now, no candidate genes have been identified to explain this linkage.

Construction and analysis of tag single nucleotide polymorphism maps for six human-mouse orthologous candidate genes in type I diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: One strategy to help identify susceptibility genes for complex, multifactorial diseases is to map disease loci in a representative animal model of the disorder. The nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse is a model for human type 1 diabetes.

Influence of Nitrogen on Grapevine Susceptibility to Downy Mildew

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Downy mildew, caused by the obligate parasite Plasmopara viticola, is one of the most important threats to viticulture. The exploitation of resistant and susceptibility traits of grapevine is one of the most promising ways to increase the sustainability ...

Circadian gene variants and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes : a pilot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background Disruption of endogenous circadian rhythms has been shown to increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, suggesting that circadian genes might play a role in determining disease susceptibility.

Association of the AFF3 gene and IL2/IL21 gene region with juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent genetic studies have led to identification of numerous loci that are associated with susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The strategy of using information from these studies has facilitated the identification of novel juvenile idiopathic ...

Exploring New Routes for Genetic Resistances to Potyviruses: The Case of the Arabidopsis thaliana Phosphoglycerates Kinases (PGK) Metabolic Enzymes

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The development of recessive resistance by loss of susceptibility is a consistent strategy to combat and limit damages caused by plant viruses. Susceptibility genes can be turned into resistances, a feat that can either be selected among the plant’s ...
