## Abstract Recent genome‐wide association studies of Parkinson's disease have nominated 3 new susceptibility loci (__PARK16__‐__18__) and confirmed 2 known risk genes (__MAPT__ and __SNCA__) in populations of European ancestry. We sought to replicate these findings. We genotyped single‐nucleotide

To date, molecular genetic analyses have identified over 500 distinct DNA variants in five disease genes associated with familial Parkinson disease; α-__synuclein__ (__SNCA__), __parkin__ (__PARK2__), __PTEN-induced putative kinase 1__ (__PINK1__), __DJ-1__ (__PARK7__), and __Leucine-rich repeat kin
## Abstract Over the past decade, major progress has been achieved in the identification of genes associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) and parkinsonism. Five genes have now been shown conclusively to play a role in PD susceptibility. Mutations in three of these genes, __PRKN__, __PINK1,__ and _
By examining the independent and joint effects of the skill and physical bases of relatedness, this study develops a multidimensional view of relatedness in diversification. The paper compares the ways the two bases identify relatedness, and examines empirically the relationship between relatedness
## Abstract Incidence rates of Parkinson's disease are higher in men than in women at all ages, and these differences may be a result of the neuroprotective effects of estrogen on the nigrostriatal pathway. We investigated the association of common variants in 4 estrogen‐related genes with Parkinso
