Mendelian Inheritance in Humans
... Autosomal traits are controlled by genes on one of the 22 human autosomes. Consider earlobe attachment. A single autosomal gene with two alleles determines whether you have attached earlobes or free-hanging earlobes. The allele for free-hanging earlobes (F) is dominant to the allele for attached ear ...

MAGMA manual (version 1.03)
... MAGMA will annotate the SNPs in the gene location file to the genes in the gene location file, mapping a SNP to a gene if its location falls on or between that gene’s start and stop site. It is of course crucial that the locations in the SNP location and gene location file refer to the same human g ...
