Dissecting dynamics and differences of selective pressures in the evolution of human pigmentation.

Biology open - 9 Feb 2021

Huang Xin, Wang Sijia, Jin Li, He Yungang

Abstract excerpt

Human pigmentation is a highly diverse and complex trait among populations and has drawn particular attention from both academic and non-academic investigators for thousands of years. Previous studies detected selection signals in several human pigmentation genes, but few studies have integrated contribution from multiple genes to the evolution of human pigmentation. Moreover, none has quantified selective...
