[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] For those who can get any [b]substance[/b] out of it, here's something to chew on; those who can't, then just assume I'm rambling on with "absolutely no substance"... With respect to the SLC24A5 pigmentation-associated gene, Pagani et al. (2012) note as follows: "we noted one that contained SLC24A5 (MIM 113750). This gene is a major contributor to the pigmentation differences between Africans and Europeans and a strong candidate for positive selection in Europe.44,45 [b]Given that SLC24A5 is one of the most highly differentiated genes[/b] between African and European populations, [b]we then looked for other highly differentiated genes among the outlier windows, but found none[/b]. To [b]further investigate the effect of admixture[/b] on the genetic landscape of skin pigmentation in Ethiopia, we [b]also looked at other genes associated with pigmentation in Europe[/b]; however, [b]none were found[/b] in our outlier regions." - Pagani et al. (2012) Significance of this, if any? [/QB][/QUOTE]
