Analysis of the genetic basis of height in large Jewish nuclear families
2018-04-17
Abstract excerpt
Despite intensive study, most genetic factors that contribute to variation in human height remain undiscovered. We conducted a family-based linkage study of height in a unique cohort of very large nuclear families from a founder (Jewish) population. This design allowed for increased power to detect linkage, compared to previous family-based studies. We identified loci that together explain an estimated 6% of the v...
