Original Note:
The term sea nomad gene isn’t scientifically correct, and it implies that there is one gene that effects diving ability. That is not unique to sea nomads. In fact, there may be other genes involved in diving adaptation, and the PDE10A variant may not be exclusive to sea nomads. https://www.cell.com/cell/pdf/S0092-8674%2818%2930386-6.pdf
