Abstract
The current study utilized experimental evidence from animal genetic studies of AUD to explain individual differences in human alcohol consumption. Analyses demonstrate that 5-10% of the total heritability of alcohol consumption was explained by the integrated geneset, while 1-5% was accounted for by regions surrounding these genes.
