Guillaume Lettre, Alexander Reiner, George Diaz and colleagues use an exome array to identify rare and low-frequency coding variants influencing hematological traits. They find several missense variants in CXCR2 associated with reduced white blood cell counts, and, in a separate family-based study, they identify a homozygous CXCR2 frameshift mutation in two siblings with congenital neutropenia.
