TL;DR: This study demonstrates a direct genetic link between Mediterranean and Central European early farmers and those of Greece and Anatolia, extending the European Neolithic migratory chain all the way back to southwestern Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct evidence for positive selection of skin, hair, and eye pigmentation in Europeans during the last 5,000 y
Sandra Wilde,Adrian Timpson,Karola Kirsanow,Elke Kaiser,Manfred Kayser,Martina Unterländer,Nina Hollfelder,Inna D. Potekhina,Wolfram Schier,Mark G. Thomas,Joachim Burger +10 more
TL;DR: Strong selection favoring lighter skin, hair, and eye pigmentation has been operating in European populations over the last 5,000 y, providing direct evidence that positive natural selection is responsible for depigmentation within Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ancient European dog genomes reveal continuity since the Early Neolithic.
Laura R. Botigué,Shiya Song,Amelie Scheu,Shyamalika Gopalan,Amanda L. Pendleton,Matthew T. Oetjens,Angela M. Taravella,Timo Seregély,Andrea Zeeb-Lanz,Rose-Marie Arbogast,Dean Bobo,Kevin G. Daly,Martina Unterländer,Joachim Burger,Jeffrey M. Kidd,Krishna R. Veeramah +15 more
TL;DR: The genomes of an Early and End Neolithic dog from Germany demonstrate continuity with each other and predominantly share ancestry with modern European dogs, contradicting a previously suggested Late Neolithic population replacement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ancestry and demography and descendants of Iron Age nomads of the Eurasian Steppe
Martina Unterländer,Friso P. Palstra,Iosif Lazaridis,A. S. Pilipenko,Zuzana Hofmanová,Melanie Groß,Christian Sell,Jens Blöcher,Karola Kirsanow,Nadin Rohland,Benjamin Rieger,Elke Kaiser,Wolfram Schier,Dimitri Pozdniakov,Aleksandr Khokhlov,Myriam Georges,Sandra Wilde,Adam Powell,Adam Powell,Evelyne Heyer,Mathias Currat,David Reich,David Reich,David Reich,Zainolla Samashev,Hermann Parzinger,Vyacheslav I. Molodin,Joachim Burger +27 more
TL;DR: Genomic inference reveals that Scythians in the east and the west of the steppe zone can best be described as a mixture of Yamnaya-related ancestry and an East Asian component, and finds evidence that significant gene-flow from east to west Eurasia must have occurred early during the Iron Age.
