A
native group of people living on the Soloman Islands northeast of
Australia called Melanesians is famous for their beautiful dark skin and
naturally blonde hair. the
blonde Melanesians have blonde that is unique solely to them. According
to the study in which scientists compared 43 blonde hair islanders to
42 dark hair islanders, blonde Melanesians have a variant of a native
gene called TYRP1 that plays an important role in the melanin
biosynthetic pathway. This variant is completely separate from what
causes blonde hair in Europeans, and doesn’t even exist in the European
genetic set.
