Abstract
Two papers report that large-scale copy-number variations, ranging in size from 100 kb to 2 Mb, are distributed widely throughout the human genome, and that a high proportion of them encompass known genes. This unexpected level of genome variation has implications for our view of human genetic diversity and phenotypic variation.Keywords
