Transferability and fine-mapping of genome-wide associated loci for adult height across human populations.

Transferability and fine-mapping of genome-wide associated loci for adult height across human populations.

Human height is the prototypical polygenic quantitative trait. Recently, several genetic variants influencing adult height were identified, primarily in individuals of East Asian (Chinese Han or Korean) or European ancestry. Here, we examined 152 genetic variants representing 107 independent loci pr...
