But Kari Stefansson, a geneticist who has looked for determinants of longevity among the Icelandic population, said of the current study that he was "amazed at how many loci of genome-wide significance have been found in a modest sample size".
The overall aims of the 'EUROHIP' cohort study are threefold: 1) to describe the amount of variation in disease severity at the time of primary THR in Europe; 2) to look for determinants of any variation; 3) to examine the effects of variations and their determinants on short-term (one year) patient centred outcomes.
In the present work, a Genome-Wide Astudyation mapping study has been performed, looking for the genetic determinants of frost tolerance in a panel of European spring 2-row barley cultivars.
As we were looking for general adaptive determinants of the species regardless of its pathogenic status, we assumed that species-specific adaptations were more likely related to life in soils or rhizospheres rather than to crown galls.
Future studies should not only look for genetic determinants of intracranial aneurysms, but also investigate genetic determinants of rupture of aneurysms.
One school, inspired by modern developments in genetics, looked for biological determinants of human cultures and sought to revive the traditional alliance between cultural anthropology and biological anthropology.
A problem that concerns some scholars is the potential for reverse causality from incomes to policies, suggesting we look for deeper determinants that explain policies.
The size of the cohort and the availability of a genealogy provided the opportunity to measure accurately the heritability of many traits, to compare the effect of age and sex as well as to look for genetic determinants shared by different traits.
We used genome-wide association methods including discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC) and generalised linear modelling (glm) to look for genetic determinants of this population partition, serovar and pathogenicity.
Franzosa and Xia studied many structural measures that characterize the microenvironment of protein sites looking for the main structural determinants of evolutionary rate at site level [ 9].
