Abstract excerpt
Testing of nuclear DNA polymorphisms in human populations has been extended to closely related primates. For many polymorphisms, one allele is shared by two or more species: such shared alleles are likely to be ancestral and provide insight not only into the relationships among the primates but also into the evolutionary history of modern humans. Humans from among eight worldwide populations share an allele with...
