Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study are to characterize the frequency of the derived allele at rs387907171 in populations from the islands of New Britain and Bougainville in Northern Island Melanesia, to confirm its association with lighter hair color, and to refine hypotheses regarding its evolutionary history. METHODS: rs387907171 was genotyped in 93 individuals from New Britain and 101 from Bougainville for...
