Rapid-throughput skeletal phenotyping of 100 knockout mice identifies 9 new genes that determine bone strength.

Osteoporosis is a common polygenic disease and global healthcare priority but its genetic basis remains largely unknown. We report a high-throughput multi-parameter phenotype screen to identify functionally significant skeletal phenotypes in mice generated by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute Mous...
