The paper investigates missing regulation by comparing trait-associated variants in cattle and pigs to human genetics, finding increased regulatory variant ascertainment in livestock.

The paper analyzes GWAS data for 27 traits to test evolutionary models, finding most traits are consistent with stabilizing selection rather than neutral evolution or directional selection.

The paper investigates the link between genetic associations and regulatory function, finding limited evidence that baseline gene expression explains GWAS associations.

The paper improves genetic mapping resolution in autoimmune diseases by identifying shared alleles across multiple conditions and reveals widespread shared mechanisms.
