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

2018-01-25

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 pressu...
