Patterns of Ancestry, Signatures of Natural Selection, and Genetic Association with Stature in Western African Pygmies
African Pygmy groups show a distinctive pattern of phenotypic variation, including short stature, which is thought to reflect past adaptation to a tropical environment. Here, we analyze Illumina 1M SNP array data in three Western Pygmy populations from Cameroon and three neighboring Bantu-speaking a...
