The debate over classification of the human species according to racial or continental lines has involved reports on genetic differences in allele frequencies of a number of loci with important biomedical functions. Such differences are in contrast with the fact that, for human beings, intrapopulation genetic diversity is larger than that seen between populations. In an attempt to address the hypothesis that...
