A Three-Stage Genome-Wide Association Study of General Cognitive Ability: Hunting the Small Effects
Childhood general cognitive ability (g) is important for a wide range of outcomes in later life, from school achievement to occupational success and life expectancy. Large-scale association studies will be essential in the quest to identify variants that make up the substantial genetic component implicated by quantitative genetic studies. We conducted a three-stage genome-wide association study...
متن کاملUnveiling the genetic loci for a panicle developmental trait using genome-wide association study in rice
Panicle size has a high correlation with grain yield in rice. There is a bottleneck to identify the additional quantitative trait loci (QTL) for panicle size due to the conventional traits used for QTL mapping. To identify more genetic loci for panicle size, a panicle developmental trait (LNTB, the length from panicle neck-knot to the first primary branch in the rachis) related to panicle size ...
متن کاملa comparative study of the theme of "marriage" in three victorian novelists: charles dickens, george eliot and thomas hardy
این تحقیق کوشیده است با انتخاب پنج رمان از میان آثار برگزیده، «چارلز دیکنز»، «جورج الیوت» و «توماس هاردی » و با رویکردی تطبیقی به بررسی درونمایه ی «ازدواج» در آثار این سه رمان نویس بزرگ دوره ی ویکتوریا بپردازد. فرضیه ی اولیه ی تحقیق این بوده است که چارلز دیکنز (1870- 1812) با زبانی شوخ و گزنده، جورج الیوت(1880- 1819) با نگاهی آموزشی–اندرزگونه و توماس هاردی(1928- 1840) با رویکردی تلخ وانتقادی به...
Genome-wide quantitative trait locus association scan of general cognitive ability using pooled DNA and 500K single nucleotide polymorphism microarrays
General cognitive ability (g), which refers to what cognitive abilities have in common, is an important target for molecular genetic research because multivariate quantitative genetic analyses have shown that the same set of genes affects diverse cognitive abilities as well as learning disabilities. In this first autosomal genome-wide association scan of g, we used a two-stage quantitative trai...
متن کاملA genome-wide association study of aging
Human longevity and healthy aging show moderate heritability (20%-50%). We conducted a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from 9 studies from the Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology Consortium for 2 outcomes: (1) all-cause mortality, and (2) survival free of major disease or death. No single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was a genome-wide significant predi...
