[QUOTE]Originally posted by Forty2Tribes: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [qb] Sources? Don't make shyt up. The paper has Neanderthal and Denisovan with black skin, black hair and black eyes. Sarah Tishkoff later confirmed black skin, and suggested there may be some with lighter skin but provided no genetic proof for that. Please provide source for your claim. Or don't mislead readers. ONLY THE FACTS [QUOTE]Originally posted by Forty2Tribes: [Q] Has there been any progress with pigment predictors? The 'Predicting Homo pigmentation phenotype through genomic data:[b] from Neanderthal to James Watson' study from 2012 had a few **false predictions** with dark skin and blue eyed Africans and Papuans.[/b] Unless I see some evidence that this was addressed I assume that most of these WHGs had brown eyes with recessed blue eyed genes. They probably weren't super dark so Lola's complexion might be close. [/Q][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]Just look at it. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/221696951_Predicting_Homo_pigmentation_phenotype_through_genomic_data_from_Neanderthal_to_James_Watson It predicted that a Papuan had blue eyes that a Yoruba had blue eyes, a Melanesian was borderline blue/brown,that a native American and Chinese person had blue eyes. It was also missing on hair color but not as bad. Judging by Lioness's link it seems to have improved but not to the point where I'm convinced that Lola really had blue eyes. [i]AUC values were found to be higher for blue eye (0.88), brown eye (0.67), black hair (0.69), fair skin (0.70) and dark skin (0.70). Intermediate phenotypes reached lower values compared to those of the extreme phenotypes (light/dark). Our results demonstrate that the HIrisPlex-S system markers have great potential for use in admixed populations, including the Brazilian, but our results also demonstrate that the intermediate color groups are difficult to predict. We analyzed each predicted category compared to the self-reported classification, evaluating their prediction index accuracy. For eye color,the system predicted only blue or brown eyes; no sample was predicted as intermediate color. In this group, 87.7% of the predictions were correct for blue eyes and 74.8% of the predictions for brown eyes. For hair color, blond hair prediction had only 32.5% of correct predictions,brown hair prediction had 84.6% accuracy, black hair color had 24.1%correct predictions and red hair had 20% precise predictions. For skin color the correct prediction rate was 95% for light skin, 10% for in-termediate skin and 13.3% for dark skin.[/i] [/QB][/QUOTE]
