Rabbit targeted genomic sequences after heterologous hybridization using human exome
ObjectiveCausal mutations for major genes that underlie a broad range of morphological traits are often located within exons of genes that then...
-
Genetic ancestry and diagnostic yield of exome sequencing in a diverse population
It has been suggested that diagnostic yield (DY) from Exome Sequencing (ES) may be lower among patients with non-European ancestries than those with...
