What I found interesting is that, while any given modern human has no more than about 4% Neanderthal DNA, it isn't the same 4% in everyone. About 20% of the Neanderthal genome is found in humans. I'm not sure what this says about interbreeding.
And then there's the Denisovans... I gotta get my DNA done...

- Symmetry 10y agoIt says that 80% of the Neanderthal genome produces a selective disadvantage?
- miguelrochefort 10y agoI got my DNA done. 3.3% Neanderthal. That's 99th percentile. Not sure if that means anything.
