The Population Variance of the Proportion of Genetic Admixture in Human Intergroup Hybrids

For each individual in a human hybrid population there is a proportion μ i, whose value is usually unknown, that expresses the fraction of his genes deriving from a specified parental population. The ...

Regulatory genomic regions active in immune cell types explain a large proportion of the genetic risk of multiple sclerosis

We have shown that GWAS data explain a considerable proportion (approximately 30%) of the phenotypic variance between MS cases and controls. 9 The aim of this study was to investigate which chromatin ...
