BackgroundThe Tibetan population residing in high-altitude (HA) regions has adapted to extreme hypoxic environments. However, there is limited understanding of the genetic basis of body compositions in Tibetan population adapted to HA.MethodsWe performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to ide...
