Assortative mating on ancestry-variant traits in admixed Latin American populations

2017-08-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Assortative mating is a universal feature of human societies, and individuals from ethnically diverse populations are known to mate assortatively based on similarities in genetic ancestry. However, little is currently known regarding the exact phenotypic cues, or their underlying genetic architecture, which inform ancestry-based assortative mating. <h4>Results</h4> We developed a novel approa...
