Human Population Admixture in Asia [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2012
Genetic admixture in human, the result of inter-marriage among people from different well-differentiated populations, has been extensively studied in the New World, where European colonization brought contact between peoples of Europe, Africa, and Asia ...

Population admixture in Chinese and European Sus scrofa. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2017
Relationships between different populations were investigated using Porcine 60 K data from 1,135 domestic pigs and wild boars across Europe and China. The results indicate that most European breeds have been introgressed with Chinese ancestry, but the ...

Principal components analysis of population admixture. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
With the availability of high-density genotype information, principal components analysis (PCA) is now routinely used to detect and quantify the genetic structure of populations in both population genetics and genetic epidemiology.

AdmixPipe: population analyses in Admixture for non-model organisms [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2020
Background Research on the molecular ecology of non-model organisms, while previously constrained, has now been greatly facilitated by the advent of reduced-representation sequencing protocols.

Inference of population admixture network from local gene genealogies: a coalescent-based maximum likelihood approach. [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2020
Population admixture is an important subject in population genetics. Inferring population demographic history with admixture under the so-called admixture network model from population genetic data is an established problem in genetics.

Patterns of African and Asian admixture in the Afrikaner population of South Africa

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background The Afrikaner population of South Africa is the descendants of European colonists who started to colonize the Cape of Good Hope in the 1600s.

Population Genomics of sub-saharan Drosophila melanogaster: African diversity and non-African admixture. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2012
Drosophila melanogaster has played a pivotal role in the development of modern population genetics. However, many basic questions regarding the demographic and adaptive history of this species remain unresolved.

Native American admixture in the Quebec founder population. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
For years, studies of founder populations and genetic isolates represented the mainstream of genetic mapping in the effort to target genetic defects causing Mendelian disorders.

A panel of ancestry informative markers for the complex five-way admixed South African coloured population. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Admixture is a well known confounder in genetic association studies. If genome-wide data is not available, as would be the case for candidate gene studies, ancestry informative markers (AIMs) are required in order to adjust for admixture. The predominant

Distinguishing Recent Admixture from Ancestral Population Structure [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2017
We develop and test two methods for distinguishing between recent admixture and ancestral population structure as explanations for greater similarity of one of two populations to an outgroup population.
