Associations of autozygosity with a broad range of human phenotypes

David W. Clark, +435 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used genomic inbreeding coefficients (F ROH) for >1.4 million individuals and found that F ROH is significantly associated with apparently deleterious changes in 32 out of 100 traits analysed.
Posted ContentDOI

Genomic analysis of family data reveals additional genetic effects on intelligence and personality

TL;DR: In these models, genetic variants in low LD with genotyped SNPs explain over half of the genetic variance in intelligence, education, and neuroticism, which is consistent with mutation-selection balance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detecting signatures of selection in nine distinct lines of broiler chickens.

TL;DR: This study has identified a large number of potential selection signatures, and further tests with higher-density marker data may narrow these regions down to individual genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Marker densities and the mapping of ancestral junctions.

TL;DR: It is shown that junctions are not, in fact randomly spaced, and the number of junctions detected is lower than that which would be expected if junctions were distributed randomly along the chromosome, and high-density marker maps will fail to detect a significant proportion of the junctions present in highly inbred populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Segregation analysis of blood oxygen saturation in broilers suggests a major gene influence on ascites

TL;DR: The analyses suggest that a major gene is involved in the genetic control of SaO in a meat-type chicken line reared in commercial conditions, and it is inferred that it acts in an overdominant fashion on body weight and fleshing score.
