Quantitative trait association study for mean telomere length in the South Asian genomes.

Abstract excerpt

MOTIVATION: Mean telomere length (MTL) is associated with cancers and age-related diseases, which necessitates identification of genomic and environmental factors that impact telomere length dynamics. Here, we present a pilot genome wide association (GWA) study for MTL in South Asian population using publicly available next generation whole genome sequences (WGS), both for MTL and genotype calculations. RESULTS:...
