SummarySummary
Polymorphism in the human Polymorphism in the human PTCPTC gene is gene is maintained by balancing natural selectionmaintained by balancing natural selection
Humans and chimps both have taster and Humans and chimps both have taster and non-taster alleles, but these alleles arose non-taster alleles, but these alleles arose independentlyindependently
Substantial inter-population differentiation Substantial inter-population differentiation of of TAS2RTAS2R genes exists, consistent with genes exists, consistent with local adaptation to environmental toxinslocal adaptation to environmental toxins
