Abstract excerpt

Adult height is a highly heritable trait in that multiple genes are involved. Recent genome-wide association studies have identified a novel single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1042725 in the high mobility group-A2 gene (HMGA2) and shown it to be associated with human height in Caucasian populations. We performed a replication study to examine the associations between SNPs in HMGA2 and adult height in the...
