Signatures of natural selection may indicate a genetic basis for the beneficial effects of oily fish intake in indigenous people from coastal Ecuador.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 17 Apr 2025

Brandt Débora Y C, Del Brutto Oscar H, Nielsen Rasmus

Abstract excerpt

Atahualpa is a rural village located in coastal Ecuador, a region that has been inhabited by people as early as 10,000 years ago. The traditional diet of their indigenous inhabitants is rich in oily fish and they have, therefore, served as a model for investigating the beneficial effects of such a diet. However, the genetic background of this population has not been studied. In this study, we sequenced the...
