Significant proportions of the observed variance in age at symptom onset can be explained by family history and mutation type (Ryman et al. 2014).

This is because variance in age of onset means that younger individuals also develop the disease.

Further study could assess if, among these alleles, alleles' frequencies are correlated with a higher mean and/or a lower variance in age of onset.

We demonstrate that variance in age of onset strongly influences selection on alleles involved in susceptibility to late-onset diseases that lead to rapid death of carriers.

This allowed us to test how robust our results are to our assumptions by exploring a range of parameter space; and to consider implications for a broader range of diseases with different mean and variance in age of onset.
