You complete dumbass.

DNA traights take hundreds of years to develop. It does not happen overnight.
Where did I say it did happen overnight?

Did you read the article?

'Napoleon Chagnon for many decades studied the Yanomamo, a warlike people who live in the forests of Brazil and Venezuela. He found that men who had killed in battle had three times as many children as those who had not. Since personality is heritable, this would be a mechanism for Yanomamo nature to evolve and become fiercer than usual.'

Likewise Sub-Saharan Africa has a long history of tribal warfare and that could cause a DNA with more of a tendency towards using violence.

And it's traits not 'traights', knucklehead.
