2 Figure 1 The evolutionary genetic architecture of skin pigmentation in three populations. Although gene flow has occurred among human populations, differences in the allele frequencies at pigmentation genes are observed among. The genes listed have demonstrated signatures of selection as (1) shared among all humans, (2) shared between East Asian and European populations, (3) unique to East Asian populations, (4) unique to European populations, and (5) unique to West African populations.
