A team of paleoanthropologists and geneticists from Aix Marseille Univ, CNRS, EFS, ADES has found evidence of what may have been a contributing factor to the decline of Neanderthals. In their paper published in the journal Scientific Reports, the group describes how they conducted genetic sequencing of three hominid gene populations to learn more about their red blood cell antigens and what they learned by doing so.
