Genetic Diversity and Societally Important Disparities.
TL;DR: A limit to the importance of genetic diversity for explaining societal differences is described while illustrating a distinction that certain biologically based scenarios do require consideration of genetic Diversity for solving problems to which populations have been differentially predisposed by the unique history of human migrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors re-sequenced 65 individual tiger genomes representing most extant subspecies with a specific focus on tigers from India and found strong genetic differentiation between the putative tiger subspecies.

TL;DR: The results support the isolation of Amur and Sumatran tigers, while geneflow between Malayan and South Asian tigers may be considered, while the impacts of ongoing connectivity loss on the health and persistence of tigers in India should be closely monitored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Consanguinity Rates Predict Long Runs of Homozygosity in Jewish Populations.
TL;DR: The high correlation between 1950s consanguinity levels and coverage by long ROH explains differences across populations in ROH patterns, and the “population isolate” status of the Ashkenazi Jews is explained.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article , the authors used longitudinal shotgun metagenomics (up to 12 timepoints) for detailed characterization of ecological and evolutionary dynamics in the gut microbiome of a cohort of CPE-colonized subjects and family members (n = 46; 361 samples).
