摘要: The invention relates to methods for inferring a genetic pigmentation trait of human subject from nucleic acid sample or polypeptide the subject, and compositions practicing such methods. are based, in part, on identification single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that, alone combination, allow an inference be drawn as hair shade, color, eye further race. A method can performed, example, by identifying at least one pigmentation-related haplotype allele gene, preferably combination related haplotypes alleles.
