The contributions of mitochondrial and nuclear mitochondrial genetic variation to neuroticism

Abstract Neuroticism is a heritable trait composed of separate facets, each conferring different levels of protection or risk, to health. By examining mitochondrial DNA in 269,506 individuals, we show mitochondrial haplogroups explain 0.07-0.01% of variance in neuroticism and identify five haplogrou...
