Height matters-from monogenic disorders to normal variation.

Nature reviews. Endocrinology - 1 Mar 2013

Durand Claudia, Rappold Gudrun A

Abstract excerpt

Height is a classic polygenic quantitative trait with a high level of heritability. As it is a simple and stable parameter to measure, height is a model for both common, complex disorders and monogenic, Mendelian disease. In this Review, we examine height from the perspective of monogenic and complex genetics and discuss the lessons learned so far. We explore several examples of rare sequence variants with large...
