Genome-wide analysis of unrecognised ethnic group Chuanqing people revealing a close affinity with Southern Han Chinese

Annals of Human Biology, 2020
Background Chuanqing is an unrecognised ethnic group in Guizhou, southwest China. The genetic history of the Chuanqing people is hotly debated due to a lack of available genetic data.

Genomic histories of polyploidy, diversification, and admixture in a Hawaiian plant radiation

, 2023
Abstract Island systems provide important contexts for studying processes underlying lineage migration, species diversification, and organismal extinction. The Hawaiian endemic mints (Lamiaceae family) are the second largest plant radiation on the isolated Hawaiian Islands.

Population genetic history and patterns of admixture [Elektronisk resurs] : Examples from northeastern and southern Africa

, 2018
The origin of humans lies in Africa, as has been shown by archaeology, paleontology and genetics. Here, we can find the largest genetic diversity and the deepest split among human populations.

Estimation of genetic admixture proportions via haplotypes

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal
Estimation of ancestral admixture is essential for creating personal genealogies, studying human history, and conducting genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The following three primary methods exist for estimating admixture coefficients.

Complex genetic admixture histories reconstructed with Approximate Bayesian Computation

, 2021
Admixture is a fundamental evolutionary process that has influenced genetic patterns in numerous species. Maximum-likelihood approaches based on allele frequencies and linkage-disequilibrium have been extensively used to infer admixture processes from ...

Admixture in Latin America [PDF]

, 2016
Latin Americans arguably represent the largest recently admixed populations in the world. This reflects a history of massive settlement by immigrants (mostly Europeans and Africans) and their variable admixture with Natives, starting in 1492.

History Shaped the Geographic Distribution of Genomic Admixture on the Island of Puerto Rico

PLoS ONE, 2011
Contemporary genetic variation among Latin Americans human groups reflects population migrations shaped by complex historical, social and economic factors. Consequently, admixture patterns may vary by geographic regions ranging from countries to neighborhoods.

Differentiated adaptative genetic architecture and language-related demographical history in South China inferred from 619 genomes from 56 populations

BMC Biology
Background The underrepresentation of human genomic resources from Southern Chinese populations limited their health equality in the precision medicine era and complete understanding of their genetic formation, admixture, and adaptive features.

Normalcy, Race, and Biomedical Technology in Brazil: The Case of Low White Blood Cell Count

Frontiers in Sociology, 2019
This article explores the intersection between low-complexity biomedical technologies and ideas about race in Brazil. Using ethnographic material collected in the northeastern city of Salvador on the clinical management of low white blood cell count ...
