Relation of FTO gene variants to fetal growth trajectories: Findings from the Southampton Women's survey

•Variants in the FTO gene are previously known to be associated with obesity.•discovered novel associations between FTO variants and growth trajectory of fetal head measures.•also found novel associations between placental FTO expression and fetal size.
