Hmmm, they have already been tested by Tishkoff and they scored less than 5 % Eurasian. Their phenotype is the result of the dry climate they live in, in comparison to other West Africans. Their are some Central AFricans who scored higher in terms of Eurasian admixture yet they look 'Negro'. (whatever that is)

It was actually less than 3% in all three samples used, so basically 0% Eurasian. The Saharan/Dogon cluster was the possibly Eurasian cluster, but it also indicated indigenous North African admixture.

The Fulani were only about ~6-8% Cushitic, in regard to all three Fulani groups. Niger-Kordofanian ancestry ranged between ~17-40% among the Fulani.
