US-ANTHROPOLOGY-GENES
In this undated image obtained from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Richard E. (Ed) Green, a computational biologist in the Baskin School of Engineering at the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC), hold replicas of the bones from which Neanderthal DNA was extracted for genome sequencing and a Neanderthal skull. Modern humans most likely interbred with Neanderthals, according to landmark genome analysis that shed light May 6, 2010 on how we evolved differently from our prehistoric cousins. "We can now say that, in all probability, there was gene flow from Neanderthals to modern humans," said Green, one of the leaders of the research. The research found that as much as four percent of the modern human genome seems to be from Neanderthals.
