Placental genomics mediates genetic associations with complex health traits and disease

The impact of placental transcriptomics on fetal traits throughout development is not well understood. Here, the authors apply distal-SNP-enriched transcriptome-wide association studies to detect genetic contributions, mediated through fetal placental genomics, to developmental programming of comple...
