Comprehensive Association Study of Type 2 Diabetes and Related Quantitative Traits With 222 Candidate Genes
OBJECTIVE Type 2 diabetes is a common complex disorder with environmental and genetic components. We used a candidate gene-based approach to identify single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants in 222 candidate genes that influence susceptibility to type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a case-control study of 1,161 type 2 diabetic subjects and 1,174 control Finns who are normal g...
متن کاملQuantitative expression analysis of candidate genes for Septoria tritici blotch resistance in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the ascomycete fungus Mycosphaerella graminicola (asexual stage: Septoria tritici), is one of the most important foliar diseases of wheat. In this research, quantitative expression analysis of five candidate genes for the induction of resistance to STB (PR-1, Bsi, Msr, Per, and Ppi) was conducted in the wheat cultivars ‘Seri 82’ (susceptible) and ‘Fronta...
متن کاملPhenoscape: Identifying Candidate Genes for Evolutionary Phenotypes
Phenotypes resulting from mutations in genetic model organisms can help reveal candidate genes for evolutionarily important phenotypic changes in related taxa. Although testing candidate gene hypotheses experimentally in nonmodel organisms is typically difficult, ontology-driven information systems can help generate testable hypotheses about developmental processes in experimentally tractable o...
متن کاملAssociation of Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Related to Candidate Genes in Patients With Schizophrenia
Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic heterogenic neurodevelopment disorder. Many genes interfere in the development of SCZ. All four genes, NrCAM, PRODH, ANK3, and ANKK1, which were evaluated in this study, were previously reported to be associated with Schizophrenia. The NrCAM contributes to creating cognitive deficiencies through the CAM’s signaling pathway. PRODH plays a vital role in cr...
متن کاملNatural Genetic Variation and Candidate Genes for Morphological Traits in Drosophila melanogaster
Body size is a complex character associated to several fitness related traits that vary within and between species as a consequence of environmental and genetic factors. Latitudinal and altitudinal clines for different morphological traits have been described in several species of Drosophila and previous work identified genomic regions associated with such variation in D. melanogaster. However,...
