BACKGROUND: Interindividual variation in fat deposition in swine is determined by loci on porcine chromosome 4, which are contained in a region that is syntenic with part of the long arm of human chromosome 1. We hypothesized that genomic variation of chromosome 1q would be associated with variation in the ratio of waist-to-hip circumference in male North American Hutterites, a genetic isolate characterized by...
