A decreased proportion of European ancestry together with an excess of Native-American ancestry on chromosome 8p23.1 points to a selection event after admixture, which is still not entirely understood in recent admixture events.

Major PGx implications are: first, extrapolation of data from relatively well-defined ethnic groups is clearly not applicable to the majority of Brazilians; second, the frequency distribution of polymorphisms in several pharmacogenes of clinical relevance varies continuously among Brazilians and is not captured by race/Color self-identification.
