Using symmetry to elucidate the importance of stoichiometry in colloidal crystal assembly.

abstract：:All common genome-wide association (GWA) methods rely on population structure correction, to avoid false genotype-to-phenotype associations. However, population structure correction is a stringent penalization, which also impedes identification of real associations. Using recent statistical advances, we developed a ne...
