... For example, humans have three genes responsible for color vision, all located on the X chromosome. In males, a defective allele for any of these genes results in colorblindness, an inability to distinguish certain colors. The most common form, red-green colorblindness, occurs in about 1 in 12 males ...

Rare and common variants: twenty arguments

It has been appreciated for some time that the distribution of minor allele frequencies (MAFs) is strongly skewed towards an excess of rare variants: over one-third of all polymorphisms have frequencies below 5%31. Multiple ...
