Farm animal evolution demonstrates hidden molecular basis of human traits
2026-02-04
Abstract excerpt
Most human variants identified by genome-wide association studies are believed to affect traits by altering gene expression. This belief is supported by considerable circumstantial evidence, but statistical methods are unable to link most trait-associated variants to gene expression—a problem we refer to as “missing regulation.” Many explanations have been proposed, including the possibility that natural selection...
