Yes, lots, but it doesn't correspond with the social construct of race, ie. A given "black" person could be substantially more genetically similar to a given "white" person than they are to another person who would be considered a "black person." The genotypal groupings of human populations does not comfortably correspond to phenotypal/cultural groupings of human populations.

    ooh, i think genotypal might be what i was thinking of.

    Where phenotypal is a mixture of environmental and genetic expression , genotypal would be exclusively the part derived from genetics.

    Would genotypal typically include epigenetics as well or only the fixed DNA based parts?
