The human gene map for performance and health-related fitness phenotypes

Article Abstract:

This article describes a human gene map used to help identify genetic differences related to physical performance and health. Traits such as endurance, muscular strength, metabolism, hemodynamic characteristics, and body composition are analyzed as genetic variables related to athletic ability and general health.

The human gene map for performance and health-related fitness phenotypes: The 2003 update

Article Abstract:

The 2003 update of the human gene map for physical performance and health-related fitness phenotypes is presented. It is based on pear-reviewed papers published by the end of 2003 and includes association studies with candidate genes, genome-wide scans with polymorphic markers, and single-gene defects causing exercise intolerance to variable degrees.
