Genome-wide association studies of quantitatively measured skin, hair, and eye pigmentation in four European populations.

Genome-wide association studies of quantitatively measured skin, hair, and eye pigmentation in four European populations.

Pigmentation of the skin, hair, and eyes varies both within and between human populations. Identifying the genes and alleles underlying this variation has been the goal of many candidate gene and several genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Most GWAS for pigmentary traits to date have been based...
