Shared variants: discovering trends, including shared variants
What is a variant? A variant tells the researcher where on the gene the
error is. A goal of the survey is to identify shared variants; two or more
unrelated individuals that share the exact same variant.
The 2022 responses show three variants that are shared by unrelated
individuals.
