Abstract excerpt
Interpretation of results from genome-wide association studies for T2D is challenging. Only very few loci have been replicated in African ancestry populations and the identification of the implicated functional genes remain largely undefined. We used genetic maps that capture detailed linkage disequilibrium information in European and African Americans and applied these to large T2D case-control samples in order...
