Whole-genome analysis of a healthy man with common trichromatic vision

Humans have a diversity of color vision that cannot be divided into normal and abnormal. As a first step to elucidate the genetic basis that contributes to the diversity of human color vision, we conducted a whole-genome analysis using DNA extracted from the saliva of a healthy man with common trichromatic vision. Further comparison with the genomes of people with various types of color vision may provide a model study of human nature that cannot be divided into normal and abnormal.
