Improved detection of global copy number variation using high density, non-polymorphic oligonucleotide probes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>DNA sequence diversity within the human genome may be more greatly affected by copy number variations (CNVs) than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Although the importance of CNVs in genome wide association studies (GWAS) is be...
