These changes are associated with runs of homozygosity (ROH), but not with common variant homozygosity, suggesting that genetic variants associated with inbreeding depression are predominantly rare. The effect on fertility is striking: FROH equivalent to the offspring of first cousins is associated with a 55% decrease [95% CI 44–66%] in the odds of having children. Finally, the effects of FROH are confirmed within full-sibling pairs, where the variation in FROH is independent of all environmental confounding.]]> Wed 26 Oct 2022 20:06:39 AEDT ]]> Genome-wide analysis identifies 12 loci influencing human reproductive behavior https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29536 Wed 11 Apr 2018 15:45:41 AEST ]]> Novel blood pressure locus and gene discovery using genome-wide association study and expression data sets from blood and the kidney https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34209 Wed 09 Feb 2022 15:53:11 AEDT ]]> Genome-Wide Interaction Analysis With DASH Diet Score Identified Novel Loci for Systolic Blood Pressure https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54919 Thu 21 Mar 2024 13:13:19 AEDT ]]> Protein-coding variants implicate novel genes related to lipid homeostasis contributing to body-fat distribution https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42033 Drosophila RNAi-knockdowns, we observed a significant increase in the total body triglyceride levels for two genes (DNAH10 and PLXND1).
