To analyze the correlation betweenphysical fitness and the major gene SNPs, which have been reported to be related toobesity, sixty-eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in seventyoneKorean children. The results of the analysis showed that there were statisticallysignificant (p
