, 2021 In adulthood, the ability to digest lactose, the main sugar present in milk of mammals, is a phenotype (lactase persistence) observed in historically herder populations, mainly Northern Europeans, Eastern Africans, and Middle Eastern nomads.

The evolutionary role of human-specific genomic events [PDF]
, 2010 In the short evolutionary time since the human-chimpanzee divergence, approximately 6.6 million years ago, humans have acquired a range of traits that are unique among primates.

Lactase persistence-related genetic variant: population substructure and health outcomes.
, 2009 Lactase persistence is an autosomal-dominant trait that is common in European-derived populations. A basic tendency for lactase persistence to increase from the southeast to the northwest across European populations has been noted, but such trends within

Nutrition Journal, 2009 Background Adult-type hypolactasia, the physiological decline of lactase some time after weaning, was previously associated with the LCT -13910C>T polymorphism worldwide except in Africa.

Genetic diversity of lactase persistence in East African populations. [PDF]
BMC Res Notes, 2016 The expression of lactase which digests lactose from milk in humans is generally lost after weaning, but selected mutations influencing the promoter of the lactase gene have spread into the human populations. This is considered a classical example of gene-culture co-evolution, and several studies suggested that the lactase gene has been under strong ...

Genetic Epidemiology, Volume 50, Issue 8, December 2026.ABSTRACT Most Mendelian randomization (MR) of dietary intake use the full set of genome‐wide significant (GWS) variants in the instrumental variable (IV), likely biasing causal estimates due to pleiotropy. To characterize the common methods to handle pleiotropy in dietary intake MR, we conducted a scoping review of the literature on dietary intake MR ...

Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012 CONTEXT: Genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP C/T-13910) located upstream of the lactase gene is used to determine adult-type hypolactasia/lactase persistence in North-European Caucasian subjects.

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 6, November 2026.ABSTRACT Salmonella remains one of the most important foodborne pathogens associated with poultry products, despite substantial progress in processing hygiene and antimicrobial interventions. This review critically examines the sources, transmission routes, and control strategies for Salmonella in vertically integrated broiler production systems ...
