Dissecting the genetic heterogeneity of myopia susceptibility in an Ashkenazi Jewish population using ordered subset analysis.

Molecular vision - 1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Despite many years of research, most of the genetic factors contributing to myopia development remain unknown. Genetic studies have pointed to a strong inherited component, but although many candidate regions have been implicated, few genes have been positively identified. METHODS: We have previously reported 2 genomewide linkage scans in a population of 63 highly aggregated Ashkenazi Jewish families...
