Sentence examples for unknown locus from inspiring English sources

All these observations therefore indicate that the QTL we have detected on chromosome 1 represents a novel unknown locus involved in bakanae resistance.

Hence, an alternative interpretation was that furR3I might be a bystander, and that the observed increase in Mtz resistance had been caused by mutation at another unknown locus.

Given the prior knowledge on SNP function, we assumed that SNP rs10811661 might exert its effect on transcription directly or indirectly through an unknown locus which have high LD with this variant.

A causative genetic defect in another unknown locus is thereby not excluded.

Expression of 5 probes (4 known genes and 1 unknown locus) decreased in both WFS1-knockdown and AATF-knockdown cells (Supplementary Table 3).

In the present study we identified one previously unknown locus (rs905938 in DCST2 at 1q22) to be associated with birth length at a genome-wide significant level.

This study identified six previously unknown loci reaching genome-wide significance levels of association with type 2 diabetes.

Although the meaning of this difference is uncertain, we suggest that inter-individual genetic variations also exist in the (thus far unknown) loci implicated in temperature compensation by the human circadian oscillator.

Attempts to identify gene-gene interactions in T1D in previous studies, e.g. in the recent T1D genome wide association studies [9], [19], [26] have not been fruitful, however, stratifying for known T1D loci while searching for dependent effects at other known or unknown loci may not be the best method.

Previously unknown loci would be expected to be expressed at low levels.

Because little is known about dinoflagellate genomes, the high percentage of unknown loci was expected.
