Assessing DNA sequence variations in human ESTs in a phylogenetic context using high-density oligonucleotide arrays.

Abstract excerpt

We have analyzed human genomic diversity in 32 individuals representing four continental populations of Homo sapiens in the context of four ape species. We used DNA resequencing chips covering 898 expressed sequence tags (ESTs), corresponding to 109 kb of sequence. Based on the intra-species data, the neutral hypothesis could not be rejected. However, the mutation rate was two times lower than typically observed...
