Landscape of multi-nucleotide variants in 125,748 human exomes and 15,708 genomes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Multi-nucleotide variants (MNV) are genetic variants in close proximity of each other on the same haplotype whose functional impact is difficult to predict if they reside in the same codon. Here, Wang et al. use the gnomAD dataset to assemble a catalogue

Mantel test in population genetics

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2013
The comparison of genetic divergence or genetic distances, estimated by pairwise F ST and related statistics, with geographical distances by Mantel test is one of the most popular approaches to evaluate spatial processes driving population structure ...

Inherited basis of visceral, abdominal subcutaneous and gluteofemoral fat depots

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The inherited basis of body fat distribution is not fully understood. Here, the authors use genetic data and MRI-derived measures of local adiposity to highlight fat depot-specific genetic architecture with implications for cardiometabolic health.

Beyond Biodiversity: Can Environmental DNA (eDNA) Cut It as a Population Genetics Tool?

open access: yesGenes, 2019
Population genetic data underpin many studies of behavioral, ecological, and evolutionary processes in wild populations and contribute to effective conservation management.

Neutral genomic signatures of host-parasite coevolution

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Coevolution is a selective process of reciprocal adaptation in hosts and parasites or in mutualistic symbionts. Classic population genetics theory predicts the signatures of selection at the interacting loci of both species, but not the ...

Population genetics of forest trees.

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 1982
The publication comprises proceedings of a conference held in Helsinki in 1981. Forest tree populations are investigated for population genetic structure, mating systems, mechanisms of genetic adaptation and ecological adaptation.

Transposon-induced epigenetic silencing in the X chromosome as a novel form of dmrt1 expression regulation during sex determination in the fighting fish

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2022
Background Fishes are the one of the most diverse groups of animals with respect to their modes of sex determination, providing unique models for uncovering the evolutionary and molecular mechanisms underlying sex determination and reversal.

Efficient pedigree recording for fast population genetics simulation

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
In this paper we describe how to efficiently record the entire genetic history of a population in forwards-time, individual-based population genetics simulations with arbitrary breeding models, population structure and demography.

FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population

open access: yesNature, 2023
Genome-wide association studies of individuals from an isolated population (data from the Finnish biobank study FinnGen) and consequent meta-analyses facilitate the identification of previously unknown coding variant associations for both rare and common
