Molecular phylogeography of a human autosomal skin color locus under natural selection.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 6 Nov 2013

Abstract excerpt

Divergent natural selection caused by differences in solar exposure has resulted in distinctive variations in skin color between human populations. The derived light skin color allele of the SLC24A5 gene, A111T, predominates in populations of Western Eurasian ancestry. To gain insight into when a...
