Adaptation to milking agropastoralism in Chilean goat herders and nutritional benefit of lactase persistence
The genetic trait of lactase persistence (LP) evolved as an adaptation to milking pastoralism in the Old World and is a well‐known example of positive natural selection in humans. However, the specific mechanisms conferring this selective advantage are unknown. To understand the relationship between...
