Genomic divergences between humans and other hominoids and the effective population size of the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Feb 2001

Chen F C, Li W H

Abstract excerpt

To study the genomic divergences among hominoids and to estimate the effective population size of the common ancestor of humans and chimpanzees, we selected 53 autosomal intergenic nonrepetitive DNA segments from the human genome and sequenced them in a human, a chimpanzee, a gorilla, and an orangutan. The average sequence divergence was only 1.24% +/- 0.07% for the human-chimpanzee pair, 1.62% +/- 0.08% for the...
