Opportunity for selection in human health.

Advances in genetics - 1 Jan 2014

Govindaraju Diddahally R

Abstract excerpt

Natural selection defined by differential survival and reproduction of individuals in populations is influenced by genetic, developmental, and environmental factors operating at every age and stage in human life history: generation of gametes, conception, birth, maturation, reproduction, senescence, and death. Biological systems are built upon a hierarchical organization nesting subcellular organelles, cells,...
