Re-sequencing Expands Our Understanding of the Phenotypic Impact of Variants at GWAS Loci

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified >500 common variants associated with quantitative metabolic traits, but in aggregate such variants explain at most 20–30% of the heritable component of population variation in these traits. To further investigate the impact of genotypic varia...
