Several previously unknown single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to diet were discovered. Some were also related to diseases including cancer and type-2 diabetes Disclaimer: AAAS and ...

Here we report the application of high-density oligonucleotide array (DNA chip)-based analysis to determine the distant history of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in current human populations.

Single nucleotide polymorphism microarrays have introduced the possibility of unbiased association screens, or GWAS, but can also be utilized for very-high-density linkage analysis. The first use ...
