Maternal genes and facial clefts in offspring: a comprehensive search for genetic associations in two population-based cleft studies from Scandinavia.

<h4>Background</h4>Fetal conditions can in principle be affected by the mother's genotype working through the prenatal environment.<h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4>Genotypes for 1536 SNPs in 357 cleft candidate genes were available from a previous analysis in which...

In iCL/P, neither TRIMM nor HAPLIN detected more genes than expected by chance alone; furthermore, the selected genes were not replicated across the two methods.
