Abstract:Athletic performance, regardless of activity or mammalian species, is determined by a combination of many genetic and environmental factors. Indeed, the functions of mammalian cardiovascular systems are greatly influenced by genetic factors that can have substantial phenotype variations between individuals and consequently variations in athletic performance. While many human studies have identified genomic regions of significance to cardiac-specific genes potentially involved in athletic performance, equine re… Show more
