" Documentation please?"

Gladly, though I misquoted...it's not 97 percent, it's 70 percent. I first recall reading an article with the 97 percent figure, but either my memory is faulty or the writer was wrong. Either way, this says it's 70. That's still a lot of shared DNA.

Seventy percent of the genes found in fruit flies are also present in humans

Thank you. I thought the figure was somewhat high.
