Key result
The 2003 update of the human gene map for physical performance and health-related phenotypes identified 109 autosomal gene entries and QTL, 2 on the X chromosome, and 15 mitochondrial genes.
The 2003 update of the human gene map significantly expands the number of genetic loci associated with physical performance and fitness phenotypes.

Expands early catalog of performance loci; leaves open validation, replication, and clinical translation in exercise medicine.
Rankinen et al. (2004) conducted a review in Physical performance and health-related fitness phenotypes. Genetic variants and loci was evaluated on Gene entries and QTLs associated with performance or fitness phenotypes. The 2003 update of the human gene map for physical performance and health-related phenotypes identified 109 autosomal gene entries and QTL, 2 on the X chromosome, and 15 mitochondrial genes.
