Similarity of polygenic profiles limits the potential for elite human physical performance.

The Journal of physiology - 1 Jan 2008

Williams Alun G, Folland Jonathan P

Abstract excerpt

Human physical capability is influenced by many environmental and genetic factors, and it is generally accepted that physical capability phenotypes are highly polygenic. However, the ways in which relevant polymorphisms combine to influence the physical capability of individuals and populations are unknown. Initially, the literature was searched to identify associations between 23 genetic polymorphisms and human...
