Genome-wide analysis indicates association between heterozygote advantage and healthy aging in humans
BACKGROUND: Genetic diversity is known to confer survival advantage in many species across the tree of life. Here, we hypothesize that such pattern applies to humans as well and could be a result of higher fitness in individuals with higher genomic heterozygosity. RESULTS: We use healthy aging as a...
