Ancestry of the Timorese: Age-related macular degeneration associated genotype and allele sharing among human populations from throughout the world
We observed that the third leading cause of blindness in the world, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), occurs at a very low documented frequency in a population-based cohort from Timor-Leste. Thus, we determined a complete catalogue of the ancestry of the Timorese by analysis of whole exome ch...
