Can hybrids have genetic diseases?

Hybrid is actually the antonym of consanguineous marriage. First of all, you should know why consanguineous marriage affects offspring, because from a biological point of view, the more similar genes are, the more likely children born to parents will get genetic diseases, such as dementia.

For example, if both male and female ancestors have 10 gene defects, then men and women in this family are more likely to inherit these gene defects, such as 9 males and 8 females, which will increase the probability of defects in their offspring.

The parents of mixed-race children come from different families, different countries and even different races, so the genes are obviously different, so the children born are not only smarter, but also beautiful. But this does not mean that hybrids do not have genetic diseases, but the probability of occurrence is smaller than that of close relatives.

In fact, the current genetic testing can completely detect possible genetic diseases in infants. Among these products, the most authoritative and comprehensive one is the genetic testing of Anxinke infants launched by Huada Gene, which will be officially released in Beijing in March today.
