The genes lead to differences in body shape in both sexes, but seven of them led to a greater expression of either shape in women than in men.

　　The researchers said the discovery held out the hope of drugs that could alter fat distribution to the safer option - potentially turning "apples" at high risk of disease into "pears".

　　In a second search of the same data they found 18 sets of genes associated with obesity, increasing the number of genes associated with a high BMI （body mass index）to 32. People with many of these 32 genes weighed 15.4lb to 19.8lb (7 to 9kg) more than those with few of them.

　　研究者基于相同的數(shù)據(jù)做出第二個(gè)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)18組與肥胖有關(guān)的基因。這些基因?qū)⑴c體質(zhì)指數(shù)有關(guān)的基因數(shù)增加到32. 人體內(nèi)帶有這32組基因的人們的體重要比體內(nèi)很少帶有這些基因的人們的體重重15.4磅到19.8磅（7至9千克）。

　　Dr Cecilia Lindgren of the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics at Oxford University, was involved in both papers, published in the journal Nature Genetics.
