Caucasian genes in American blacks: new data.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Jan 1992

Chakraborty R, Kamboh M I, Nwankwo M, Ferrell R E

Abstract excerpt

Data on 15 polymorphic protein-coding loci are used to estimate the proportion of Caucasian genes in U.S. blacks from the greater-metropolitan area of Pittsburgh. Allele frequencies from U.S. whites of the same region and from a sample of Nigerians are used as representatives of the genetic contributions of the source populations between which admixture has occurred. These materials provide 18 unique variants...
