TL;DR: It is shown that hundreds of genetic variants, in at least 180 loci, influence adult height, a highly heritable and classic polygenic trait, and indicates that GWA studies can identify large numbers of loci that implicate biologically relevant genes and pathways.

TL;DR: In a genome-wide search for CNVs associating with schizophrenia, a population-based sample was used to identify de novo CNVs by analysing 9,878 transmissions from parents to offspring and three deletions significantly associate with schizophrenia and related psychoses in the combined sample.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that hundreds of genetic variants, in at least 180 loci, influence adult height, a highly heritable and classic polygenic trait, revealing patterns with important implications for genetic studies of common human diseases and traits.

A high-resolution recombination map of the human genome

TL;DR: Recombination rates are significantly correlated with both cytogenetic structures and sequence and paternal chromosomes show many differences in locations of recombination maxima, suggesting that there is some underlying component determined by both genetic and environmental factors that affects maternal recombination rates.

TL;DR: A study of genome-wide mutation rates by sequencing the entire genomes of 78 Icelandic parent–offspring trios at high coverage shows that the diversity in mutation rate of single nucleotide polymorphisms is dominated by the age of the father at conception of the child.
