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

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 28, 2002. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended May 28, 2022.

- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
