The Fulani’s ancestry links to North and West Africa, the Green Sahara period, and ancient Berber groups, shaped by migration ...

Population-genetic modelling provides a basis for examining ... Although challenges exist with issues such as imputation, admixture and replication, investigation of a greater diversity of ...

Given the high levels of variation and between-population discrimination shown by pharmaSNPs, we also evaluated the extent to which they carry information about genetic ancestry and admixture, ...

Firstly, given the limited representation of non-European populations in genetic studies, combining the genetic architecture of this population can potentially help in understanding East-Asian ...

This is a rigorous and critical analysis of the performance of a popular suite of methods for inferring population history, accompanied by improvements. Should be of broad interest to anyone ...

However, a small proportion of the European population carries a genetic variant that provides natural protection against IBD ... migratory movements gradually spread the IL23R variant across Europe ...

What is the genetic architecture of local adaptation and what is the geographic scale over which it operates? We investigated patterns of local and convergent adaptation in five sympatric population ...
