Association between the FTO A/T Polymorphism and Elite Athlete Status in Caucasian Swimmers.

Genes - 11 May 2021

Zmijewski Piotr, Leońska-Duniec Agata

Abstract excerpt

The FTO A/T polymorphism (rs9939609) has been strongly associated with body mass-related traits in nonathletic populations, but rarely with elite athletic performance. The aim of the study was to investigate the association between the A/T polymorphism and athlete status in elite swimmers. Polish swimmers (n = 196) who competed in national and international competition at short- (SDS; 50-200 m; n = 147) and...
