TL;DR: It is shown that the Bronze Age was a highly dynamic period involving large-scale population migrations and replacements, responsible for shaping major parts of present-day demographic structure in both Europe and Asia.

TL;DR: Pre-Columbian genetic substructure is recapitulated in the indigenous ancestry of admixed mestizo individuals across the country, and two independently phenotyped cohorts of Mexicans and Mexican Americans showed a significant association between subcontinental ancestry and lung function.

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of the Iceman is reported and 100% concordance between the previously reported mitochondrial genome sequence and the consensus sequence generated from the genomic data is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular evidence for a single evolutionary origin of domesticated rice

TL;DR: Demographic modeling based on SNP data and a diffusion-based approach provide the strongest support for a single domestication origin of rice, and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses implementing the multispecies coalescent and using previously published phylogenetic sequence datasets also point to a single origin of Asian domesticated rice.

TL;DR: A population expansion in northeast Australia during the Holocene epoch associated with limited gene flow from this region to the rest of Australia, consistent with the spread of the Pama–Nyungan languages is inferred.
