Characterizing rare and low-frequency height-associated variants in the Japanese population

Thousands of genetic loci are known to associate with human height, but these are mainly based on studies in European ancestry populations. Here, Akiyama et al. construct a genotype reference panel for the Japanese population followed by GWAS and report 573 height associated variants in 191,787 Japa...
