Genotype–phenotype databases provide information about genetic variation, its consequences and its mechanisms of action for research and health care purposes. Existing databases vary greatly in ...
A key challenge in genetics is predicting variation in phenotypic traits from the genome sequences of individuals. Work in model organisms indicates that a combination of genetic information andin ...
Across two new papers published Wednesday (July 23) in the journal Nature, scientists sequenced the DNA of 1,084 people ...
An international team of researchers have significantly expanded the catalogue of known human genetic variation. The ...
An international team of scientists has decoded some of the most stubborn, overlooked regions of the human genome using ...
Complex regions of the human genome remained uncharted, even after researchers sequenced the genome in its entirety. That is, ...
Completed in 2003, the Human Genome Project gave us the first sequence of the human genome, albeit based on DNA from a small handful of people. Building upon its success, the 1000 Genomes Project was ...
Over 250 associations between phenotype and copy number variation were identified. New ties were revealed between certain genes and various traits, like height. For example, some carriers of very rare ...
A combined study on the morphology of the human pelvis – leveraging genetics and deep learning on data from more than 31,000 individuals – reveals genetic links between pelvic structure and ...
Like a merchant of old, balancing the weights of two different commodities on a scale, nature can keep different genetic traits in balance as a species evolves over millions of years. These traits can ...
