The geometry of admixture in population genetics: the blessing of dimensionality

GENETICS, 2023
Abstract We present a geometry-based interpretation of the f-statistics framework, commonly used in population genetics to estimate phylogenetic relationships from genomic data. The focus is on the determination of the mixing coefficients in population admixture events subject to post-admixture drift.

The Genetic Landscape of Kyrgyzstan: admixture and genetic history of a population from Central Asia [PDF]

, 2023
openKyrgyzstan is a Central Asia country, inhabited mainly by a Turkic ethnic group, the Kyrgyz people. It was once crossed by the ancient Silk Road, being a melting point of cultures, languages, and genes.

Interdisciplinary approach to the demography of Jamaica [PDF]

, 2012
<p>Background: The trans-Atlantic slave trade dramatically changed the demographic makeup of the New World, with varying regions of the African coast exploited differently over roughly a 400 year period.

Admixture estimates for the population of Havana City

Annals of Human Biology, 2009
The Cuban population is essentially a result of the admixture between Spanish, West African and, to a lesser degree, Amerindian tribes that inhabited the island.The study analysed the genetic structure of the three principal ethnic groups from Havana City, and the contribution of parental populations to its genetic pool.According to genealogical ...

Genetic position of Hungarian Grey among European cattle and identification of breed-specific markers

Animal, 2020
Hungarian Grey is an indigenous cattle breed that is one of the national symbols of Hungary. However, genetic description of the Hungarian Grey cattle has not yet been conducted based on whole-genome screening. Using the GeneSeek high-density Bovine SNP (

DNA diversity and population admixture in Anatolia

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2001
AbstractThe Turkic language was introduced in Anatolia at the start of this millennium, by nomadic Turkmen groups from Central Asia. Whether that cultural transition also had significant population‐genetics consequences is not fully understood. Three nuclear microsatellite loci, the hypervariable region I of the mitochondrial genome, six microsatellite

Genetic Variability and Population Structure of Camelus from Kazakhstan Inferred from 17 STR Markers

Diversity
Camels have been essential to human survival and development across the arid Central Asian steppes, particularly in Kazakhstan, where the breeding of one-humped and two-humped camels is a longstanding tradition supporting the nomadic lifestyle.
