BDKRB2 GENE -9/+9 POLYMORPHISM AND SWIMMING PERFORMANCE
The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between swimming performance and the -9/+9 (rs5810761) polymorphism within the BDKRB2 gene in successful competitive swimmers.Best individual swimming results expressed in FINA points achieved at short, middle and long distance events of 157 well-...
