DIET AND THE EVOLUTION OF SALIVARY AMYLASE
... In humans, the AMY1 gene on chromosome 1 produces salivary amylase. Humans are diploid organisms, meaning that, except for the genes on the X and Y chromosomes, they have two copies of most genes—one copy inherited from each parent. However, genetic studies show that people can have anywhere from ...
