Population admixture can enhance establishment success of the introduced biological control agent Cryptolaemus montrouzieri [PDF]

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background Introduced biological control agents have opportunities of population admixture through multiple introductions in the field. However, the importance of population admixture for their establishment success often remains unclear.

Further Evidence of Population Admixture in the Serbian Honey Bee Population [PDF]

Insects, 2022
Socioeconomic interests and beekeeper preferences have often taken precedence over the conservation of locally native honey bee subspecies, leading to the predominance of admixture populations in human-dominated areas.

AdmixSim 2: a forward-time simulator for modeling complex population admixture [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics, 2021
Background Computer simulations have been widely applied in population genetics and evolutionary studies. A great deal of effort has been made over the past two decades in developing simulation tools. However, there are not many simulation tools suitable

AdmixSim: A Forward-Time Simulator for Various Complex Scenarios of Population Admixture [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Background: Population admixture is a common phenomenon in humans, animals, and plants, and it plays a very important role in shaping individual genetic architecture and population genetic diversity.

Genomic Insight Into the Population Admixture History of Tungusic-Speaking Manchu People in Northeast China [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Manchu is the third-largest ethnic minority in China and has the largest population size among the Tungusic-speaking groups. However, the genetic origin and admixture history of the Manchu people are far from clear due to the sparse sampling and a ...

Leveraging population admixture to characterize the heritability of complex traits. [PDF]

Nat Genet, 2014
Despite recent progress on estimating the heritability explained by genotyped SNPs (h(2)g), a large gap between h(2)g and estimates of total narrow-sense heritability (h(2)) remains.

Dynamic and adaptive cancer stem cell population admixture in colorectal neoplasia.

Cell Stem Cell, 2022
Summary Intestinal homeostasis is underpinned by LGR5+ve crypt-base columnar stem cells (CBCs), but following injury, dedifferentiation results in the emergence of LGR5−ve regenerative stem cell populations (RSCs), characterized by fetal transcriptional ...

Fast and accurate population admixture inference from genotype data from a few microsatellites to millions of SNPs. [PDF]

Heredity (Edinb), 2022
Model-based (likelihood and Bayesian) and non-model-based (PCA and K-means clustering) methods were developed to identify populations and assign individuals to the identified populations using marker genotype data.

Assessing the performance of qpAdm: a statistical tool for studying population admixture. [PDF]

Genetics, 2021
qpAdm is a statistical tool for studying the ancestry of populations with histories that involve admixture between two or more source populations. Using qpAdm, it is possible to identify plausible models of admixture that fit the population history of a ...

Fine-Scale Population Admixture Landscape of Tai-Kadai-Speaking Maonan in Southwest China Inferred From Genome-Wide SNP Data. [PDF]

Front Genet, 2022
Guizhou Province harbors extensive ethnolinguistic and cultural diversity with Sino-Tibetan-, Hmong–Mien-, and Tai–Kadai-speaking populations. However, previous genetic analyses mainly focused on the genetic admixture history of the former two linguistic
