The time and place of European admixture in Ashkenazi Jewish history. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2017 The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population is important in genetics due to its high rate of Mendelian disorders. AJ appeared in Europe in the 10th century, and their ancestry is thought to comprise European (EU) and Middle-Eastern (ME) components.

Ancestral Origins and Admixture History of Kazakhs [PDF]
Molecular Biology and EvolutionAbstract Kazakh people, like many other populations that settled in Central Asia, demonstrate an array of mixed anthropological features of East Eurasian (EEA) and West Eurasian (WEA) populations, indicating a possible scenario of biological admixture between already differentiated EEA and WEA populations.

Complex History of Admixture between Modern Humans and Neandertals [PDF]
The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2015 Recent analyses have found that a substantial amount of the Neandertal genome persists in the genomes of contemporary non-African individuals. East Asians have, on average, higher levels of Neandertal ancestry than do Europeans, which might be due to ...

Complex population history affects admixture analyses in nine-spined sticklebacks [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2022 Introgressive hybridization is an important process in evolution but challenging to identify, undermining the efforts to understand its role and significance.

Outstanding questions in the study of archaic hominin admixture. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 The complete sequencing of archaic and modern human genomes has revolutionized the study of human history and evolution. The application of paleogenomics has answered questions that were beyond the scope of archaeology alone-definitively proving ...

Admixture history of the South African "Coloured" populations
, 2020 Admixed people formed from colonial era migrations are a major feature of present-day diversity. In Southern Africa, establishment of the Dutch Cape Colony instigated the so-called "Coloured" communities, associated, essentialistically, with 'mixed ...

Complex genetic admixture histories reconstructed with Approximate Bayesian Computations [PDF]
Molecular Ecology Resources, 2020 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 ...
