Which Asian countries have the most hybrid vigor?

Question

Also known as heterosis.

Answer 1

Probably Hong Kong (Cosmopolitan) and Viet Nam & South Korea (Because of the U.S. occupation years ago)...

Answer 2

I doubt there is enough variation in the entire human genome to get any hybrid vigor.  About all you get is relative lack of inbreeding.

Answer 3

I agree with bravozulu. You'd be hard pressed to find significant hybrid vigor in the human population. That being said, pretty much all races are somewhat inbred so there is likely a small percentage lower inbreeding factor in nations where foreigners are more common. Whether this factor is significant is really hard to say. You're best off not worrying about peoples' genetic makeup when you talk about them.

Answer 4

"Hybrid vigor" to refer to human beings?  Not plants and animals.I would say none. East Asian genes are dominant to European genes and all African genes. It is because of many milennia of  consistent intermarriage with only East Asian tribes. Thus creating homozygous-dominant traits, and genes that do not get changed or mutated easily. European tribes can trace dna lineage to Germanic, North Africa, Finnic, West Africa, and Middle Eastern populations, because of many invasions and migrations from African and Middle Eastern tribes. Allowing many phenotypes and genotypes in Europe as seen in eye color ranging from light blue, green, hazel, and dark brown. And a variety of natural hair colors ranging from light blonde to dark brown, and many skin tones. European haplotypes include:

There are three major Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups which largely account for most of Europe's present-day population[17][18]. Such haplogroups indicate that individuals share one male ancestor (they do not mean that individuals do not share ancestors with individuals with other haplogroups, only that such ancestry cannot be traced using currently available methods).

R1b is common on the western Atlantic coast of Europe, from the Iberian Peninsula (comprising Spain and Portugal) to Ireland, Wales, England and Scotland, and Jutland.

I is common across Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, and up into Scandinavia (I1), as well as the western Balkans (I2).

R1a is common in Eastern Europe. Bryan Sykes in The Seven Daughters of Eve discusses seven mitochondrial haplogroups prevalent in Europe, Haplogroup U, Haplogroup X, Haplogroup H, Haplogroup V, Haplogroup T, Haplogroup K and Haplogroup J. Other mitochondrial groups found in Europe include I, M and W. A recent researched re-mapped European haplogroups as H, J, K, N1, T, U4, U5, V, X and W. East Asian populations mainly have haplogroups D, C, and O.

Answer 5

"hybrid vigor" what's that?
