    • 2009, C. Neal Stewart, Jr., Weedy and Invasive Plant Genomics, Wiley (Wiley-Blackwell), page xv,

    • 2012, Catherine Bliss, Race Decoded: The Genomic Fight for Social Justice, Stanford University Press, page 72:
      Like many genomicists working at this turning point in race-based medicine and genomic policy, company scientists struggled to align their definition of race with critical thought and ideas from the public domain.
    • 2016, Johnny E. Williams, Decoding Racial Ideology in Genomics, Lexington Books, page 16:
      This occurred because genetic data clustering is highly dependent on the genomicists’ initial racially distorted hypotheses and methodologies. Because genetic data are chosen and analyzed by genomicists immersed in racialized cultures which provide them the means of making sense of human genetic variation they, as I discuss later in the book, are apt to design studies and interpret data to suggest a relatively small fraction of genetic variation between socially defined racial groups connotes biological 'race.'
