Sherpas share genetic variations with Tibetans for high‐altitude adaptation
BACKGROUND: Sherpas, a highlander population living in Khumbu region of Nepal, are well known for their superior climbing ability in Himalayas. However, the genetic basis of their adaptation to high‐altitude environments remains elusive. METHODS: We collected DNA samples of 582 Sherpas from Nepal an...
