Journal ArticleDOI

Detecting recent positive selection in the human genome from haplotype structure

TL;DR: A framework for detecting the genetic imprint of recent positive selection by analysing long-range haplotypes in human populations is introduced, and the core haplotypes carrying the proposed protective mutation stand out and show significant evidence of selection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancient Admixture in Human History

TL;DR: A suite of methods for learning about population mixtures are presented, implemented in a software package called ADMIXTOOLS, that support formal tests for whether mixture occurred and make it possible to infer proportions and dates of mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linkage disequilibrium in the human genome

TL;DR: The results illuminate human history, suggesting that LD in northern Europeans is shaped by a marked demographic event about 27,000–53,000 years ago, implying that LD mapping is likely to be practical in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI

The complete genome sequence of a Neanderthal from the Altai Mountains

TL;DR: It is shown that interbreeding, albeit of low magnitude, occurred among many hominin groups in the Late Pleistocene and a definitive list of substitutions that became fixed in modern humans after their separation from the ancestors of Neanderthals and Denisovans is established.
