    AnnotationIn the HXB/BXH recombinant inbred (RI) rats, correlation analysis of brain gene expression levels with alcohol consumption in a two-bottle choice paradigm generated a list of candidate genes and signaling pathways. In the human populations, polymorphisms in genes associated with GABA synthesis and GABA receptors, as well as genes related to dopaminergic transmission, were associated with alcohol consumption.The results suggest cross-species similarities in pathways that influence predisposition to consume alcohol by rats and humans. Our results also suggest that different genetic factors predispose alcohol dependence versus the phenotype of alcohol consumption
