Density of common complex ocular traits in the aging eye: analysis of secondary traits in genome-wide association studies.

PloS one - 25 Jun 2008

Edwards Albert O, Lee Sung J, Fridley Brooke L, Tosakulwong Nirubol

Abstract excerpt

Genetic association studies are identifying genetic risks for common complex ocular traits such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The subjects used for discovery of these loci have been largely from clinic-based, case-control studies. Typically, only the primary phenotype (e.g., AMD) being studied is systematically documented and other complex traits (e.g., affecting the eye) are largely ignored. The...
