Genome-Wide Association (GWA) Studies
A host of data on genetic variation from the Human Genome and International HapMap projects, and advances in high-throughput genotyping technologies, have made genome-wide association (GWA) studies technically feasible. GWA studies help in the discovery and quantification of the genetic components of disease risks, many of which have not been unveiled before, and have opened a new avenue to und...
متن کاملA network-driven approach for genome-wide association mapping
MOTIVATION It remains a challenge to detect associations between genotypes and phenotypes because of insufficient sample sizes and complex underlying mechanisms involved in associations. Fortunately, it is becoming more feasible to obtain gene expression data in addition to genotypes and phenotypes, giving us new opportunities to detect true genotype-phenotype associations while unveiling their...
متن کاملThe genome-wide identification and transcriptional levels of DNA methyltransferases and demethylases in globe artichoke
Changes to the cytosine methylation status of DNA, driven by the activity of C5 methyltransferases (C5-MTases) and demethylases, exert an important influence over development, transposon movement, gene expression and imprinting. Three groups of C5-MTase enzymes have been identified in plants, namely MET (methyltransferase 1), CMT (chromomethyltransferases) and DRM (domains rearranged methyltran...
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 کاملGenome-wide Association: “A Revolutionary Approach”
Genome-Wide Association studies (GWAS) have brought a revolutionary change or paradigm shift in detecting novel variants for complex disorders and shifting the burden of finding the biological relevance of these newly discovered variants on biochemists and physiologists, hence it is a movement from forward to reverse genetics. Here we discuss the role of such studies with GWAS designs from anth...
