Subject: [DNA] News item: still more genes involved in pigmention
Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2007 19:50:24 EDT

In the past, we've discussed some technical articles by Frudakis of DNAPrint,

Now comes an article from deCODE, which looked for differences within
Europeans:

The technical article requires a subscription to Nature Genetics:
