Heterochromia is determined by the production, delivery, and concentration of melanin (a pigment). It may be inherited, or caused by genetic mosaicism, chimerism, disease, or injury. [2] It occurs in humans and certain breeds of domesticated animals. Heterochromia of the eye is called heterochromia iridum or heterochromia iridis. It can be ...
A human chimera is a human with a subset of cells with a distinct genotype than other cells, that is, having genetic chimerism.In contrast, an individual where each cell contains genetic material from a human and an animal is called a human–animal hybrid, while an organism that contains a mixture of human and non-human cells would be a human-animal chimera.
This is a list of notable people who have been documented as having heterochromia iridis, a condition when the irises have different colours. People who are frequently mistakenly thought to have heterochromia are not included, but may be listed in the Notes section.
Don't heterochromia iridis and heterochromia iridium deserve separate articles, particulary since they're two different traits that are often confused? Joygerhardt 07:00, 14 July 2005 (UTC) I agree.

Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid have blended their families.. A source tells PEOPLE exclusively that Cooper's child Lea De Seine, 7, and Hadid's daughter Khai, 4, "spend time together." "It’s very ...
The total number of genes that contribute to eye color is unknown, but there are a few likely candidates. A study in Rotterdam (2009) found that it was possible to predict eye color with more than 90% accuracy for brown and blue using just six SNPs. [16] [17] In humans, eye color is a highly sexually dimorphic trait. [18]
The identity management tech firm is no stranger to public markets. Thoma Bravo took SailPoint public on Nov. 18, 2017, around the same time as quasi-competitor Okta debuted.
Human piebaldism has been observed to be associated with a very wide range and varying degrees of endocrine disorders, and is occasionally found together with heterochromia of the irises, congenital deafness, or incomplete gastrointestinal tract development, possibly all with the common cause of premature cutting off of human fetal growth ...
