Informative exonic or untranslated SNPs for each gene were primarily selected from HapMap data (http://www.hapmap.org/).hapmap.org/
The genes represented on this array were primarily selected from unique ESTs derived from fiber initials, stems and roots [ 9].
Controls were primarily selected from healthy female visitors accompanying patients referred to the Faghihi hospital for general surgery (60%), urology (24%) and cardiovascular (16%) diseases.
Damselfish specimens were primarily selected from the fish collection of the Field Museum of Natural History, and additional specimens were provided by the Australian Museum, the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the United States National Museum of Natural History in the Smithsonian Institution.
Additionally, the SNP panel used in the current study was primarily selected from SNPs that segregate between breeds or lines, rather than within lines, so a low percentage of segregating markers within line is expected.
The U343MGa cell6 celineine (wt p53) was primarily selected for investigation of the effects resulting from loss of RPS9.
All SNPs were primarily selected for their impact on HDL.
The patients for both the first and the second part of the study were primarily selected consecutively from the patients that were scanned in the hospitals.
The genes investigated were primarily selected based on findings from our earlier genetic studies[2], [4] [12] in pathways involved in steroidogenesis, immune function, cell signaling, sunlight exposure, xenobiotic metabolism/oxidative stress, energy balance, as well as uptake and metabolism of cholesterol, folate and vitamin C (Table 1).
These issues were primarily selected because they are key topics in bioethics (Beauchamp et al. 2008).
