      Here we report a genome-wide association study for non-pathological pinna morphology in over 5,000 Latin Americans. We find genome-wide significant association at seven genomic regions affecting: lobe size and attachment, ...
    • Geografía génica de Chile. Distribución regional de los aportes genéticos americanos, europeos y africanos
