DNA profiling in forensics has improved, but predicting physical traits and ancestry from DNA has limitations and requires ethical consideration.
research Diverse northern Asian and Jomon-related genetic structure discovered among socially complex Three Kingdoms period Gaya region Koreans
The DNA of ancient Koreans from the Three Kingdoms period shows a mix of northern Chinese and Japanese-Jomon ancestry, revealing two distinct genetic groups.
research Multi-ancestry tandem repeat association study of hair colour using exome-wide sequencing
Tandem repeats significantly influence hair color, especially darker shades, across different ancestries.
research 284 Deciphering the pathogenesis of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA in women of African ancestry may be caused by PADI3 gene mutations and intense hair grooming.
research A Tale of Two Haplotypes: The EDA2R/AR Intergenic Region is the Most Divergent Genomic Segment between Africans and East Asians in the Human Genome
The most different genetic segment between Africans and East Asians is the EDA2R/AR region, with two main types influenced by population changes and natural selection, and linked to baldness.
