Abstract excerpt
Shared genetic factors represent one underlying mechanism thought to contribute to high rates of alcohol and tobacco co-use and dependence. Common variants identified by molecular genetic studies tend to confer only small disease risk, and rare protein-coding variants are posited to contribute to disease risk, as well. However, given that genotyping technologies allowing for their inclusion in association studies...
