Local Adaptation of Sun-Exposure-Dependent Gene Expression Regulation in Human Skin.
Sun-exposure is a key environmental variable in the study of human evolution. Several skin-pigmentation genes serve as classical examples of positive selection, suggesting that sun-exposure has significantly shaped worldwide genomic variation. Here we investigate the interaction between genetic vari...
