From the editorial by Huang: “About 80% of the human genome are transcribed but how much of it is functional is under hot debate. As one would immediately know if one takes an honest look at all the facts, the junk DNA position really is just hot air: it is neither supported by facts nor by axioms or self-evident logical reasoning, and has already been falsified by the failure of the universal molecular clock hypothesis. In fact, the exact opposite of neutrality should now become the null hypothesis because it is free of factual contradictions and accounts for all known facts.”
