Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The main goals of this study are to 1) quantitatively measure skin, hair, and iris pigmentation in a diverse sample of individuals, 2) describe variation within and between these samples, and 3) demonstrate how quantitative measures can facilitate genotype-phenotype association tests. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We quantitatively characterize skin, hair, and iris pigmentation using the Melanin (M) Index...
