A SNP (pronounced "snip") is a substitution of one base pair at a given location on the genome. At position 11,294,479 on human chromosome 7, for instance, some people have an A, while others have a G ...

In this study, the genome-wide mean F ST value across all SNP classes was found to be 0.11, interpreted as a moderate level of differentiation. The researchers interpreted F ST values below 0.05 ...

Neuropsychiatric disorders are becoming increasingly prevalent. Given their complex and multifactorial pathogenesis, there is ...

We were very interested in studying common and rare Neandertal SNPs separately because the rarer a DNA variant is, the more likely it is to be harmful and the less likely it is to be passed down ...

Thinking about population genetics often brings to mind visions of animals in the wild being swept along by the tide of natural catastrophes, soil depletion, or predation. However, over the past ...

The following is a summary of “Distinct genetic risk loci between biopsy-proven renal and non-renal lupus: a 10-year ...

multivariate phenotypic factor and genetic analysis; developmental models; power analysis; extended twin designs; SNP-(co-)heritability; Genomic SEM; Mendelian randomization; responsible conduct of ...
