Abstract excerpt

Human physical performance is influenced by genetic factors. A variation in the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been identified, in which the insertion (I) variant may be associated with elite endurance performance, and the deletion (D) variant seems overrepresented amongst elite sprinters and short-distance swimmer status. We might thus anticipate I-allele frequency to be elevated amongst...
