Genes that have been associated with asthma- or atopy-related traits in at least one study. We searched the public databases for published candidate gene association studies of asthma and related phenotypes and list all genes that have been associated with asthma- or atopy-related traits in at least one study. For each variant in these 64 genes, we report the associated phenotype(s), information about study population, sample size, and Hardy-Weinberg testing results for each study.
