Genetic and phenotypic consequences of introgression between humans and Neanderthals.

Advances in genetics - 1 Jan 2011

Wills Christopher

Abstract excerpt

Strong evidence for introgression of Neanderthal genes into parts of the modern human gene pool has recently emerged. The evidence indicates that some populations of modern humans have received infusions of genes from two different groups of Neanderthals. One of these Neanderthal groups lived in the Middle East and Central Europe and the other group (the Denisovans) is known to have lived in Central Asia and was...
