Large-scale GWAS of food liking reveals genetic determinants and genetic correlations with distinct neurophysiological traits

We present the results of a GWAS of food liking conducted on 161,625 participants from the UK-Biobank. Liking was assessed over 139 specific foods using a 9-point scale. Genetic correlations coupled with structural equation modelling identified a multi-level hierarchical map of food-liking with thre...
