Genome-wide Association Study of Anthropometric Traits in Korčula Island, Croatia
In this article, we report on a comprehensive genomewide association study of height, weight, body mass index, and three circumference measurements – brachial, waist, and hip – in the isolated population of the island of Korčula in Croatia. The study is a part of a larger genetic epidemiology research program in Croatian island isolates, “10, 001 Dalmatians.” The genetic epidemiology research program in Croatian island isolates began in 1999 (20, 21), then expanded to study human genetic variation and effects of isolation and inbreeding (22-29), and finally entered the phase of focusing on diseases and gene mapping studies (8, 30-35). By now, the research project has included more than 3000 examinees from isolated populations, and eventually it aims to reach 10 001 examinees.
