Homozygosity and risk of childhood death due to invasive bacterial disease

Homozygosity and risk of childhood death due to invasive bacterial disease

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Genetic heterozygosity is increasingly being shown to be a key predictor of fitness in natural populations, both through inbreeding depression, inbred individuals having low heterozygosity, and also through chance linkage between a m...
