Common variants in the JAZF1 gene associated with height identified by linkage and genome-wide association analysis

Genes for height have gained interest for decades, but only recently have candidate genes started to be identified. We have performed linkage analysis and genome-wide association for height in approximately 4000 individuals from five European populations. A total of five chromosomal regions showed s...
