Evidence of genotypic adaptation to the exposure to volcanic risk at the dopamine receptor drd4 locus

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Charlotte Faurie from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: Evidence of genotypic adaptation to the exposure to volcanic risk at the dopamine receptor DRD4 locus, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 01/Dec/2016
• what: The authors demonstrate genetic differentiation for this gene, but not for five unlinked microsatellite loci, between high- and low risk environments around Mount Merapi, an active volcano in Java, Indonesia. The authors provide evidence of a genetic basis for this difference, showing that heterozygotes at the DRD4 locus are more risk averse than either homozygotes. How do the authors determine . . .
