Genetic population structure accounts for contemporary ecogeographic patterns in tropic and subtropic-dwelling humans.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Hruschka Daniel J, Hadley Craig, Brewis Alexandra A, Stojanowski Christopher M

Abstract excerpt

Contemporary human populations conform to ecogeographic predictions that animals will become more compact in cooler climates and less compact in warmer ones. However, it remains unclear to what extent this pattern reflects plastic responses to current environments or genetic differences among populations. Analyzing anthropometric surveys of 232,684 children and adults from across 80 ethnolinguistic groups in...
