What Are Minor Genetic Variations?

Minor genetic variations, also known as genetic polymorphisms, are small differences in the genetic code among individuals within a population. These variations can occur in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions, deletions, and copy number variations. While most of these changes do not lead to significant differences in phenotype, some can affect an individual's susceptibility to diseases, response to medications, and other health-related traits.
