Table 1. Female infertility-associated genetic variants affecting prophase I and meiotic entry.

Genes are listed in order of appearance in text; their variants are listed in order of publication year. Frequencies of small (<1kb) genetic variants were identified in gnomAD v2.1.1 and ExAc v1.0 via ANNOVAR. Allele frequencies of structural variants reflect those of overlapping variants of the same type (i.e., deletion (DEL), duplication (DUP) etc.), rather than of exact matches; the gnomAD variant ID of the variant used is indicated.
