TL;DR: It is shown that both dark and light pigmentation alleles arose before the origin of modern humans and that both light and dark pigmented skin has continued to evolve throughout hominid history.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lyman α radiative transfer in a multiphase medium
Matthew E. B. Hansen,S. Peng Oh +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate Lya resonant scattering through an ensemble of dusty, moving, optically thick gas clumps and develop an analytic framework for estimating escape fractions and line widths as a function of gas geometry, motion, and dust content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Going global by adapting local: A review of recent human adaptation
TL;DR: Ongoing efforts in sequencing genomes of indigenous populations, accompanied by the growing availability of “-omics” and ancient DNA data, promises a new era in understanding of recent human evolution and the origins of variable traits and disease risks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybridization reveals the evolving genomic architecture of speciation.
Marcus R. Kronforst,Matthew E. B. Hansen,Nicholas G. Crawford,Jason R. Gallant,Wei Zhang,Rob J. Kulathinal,Durrell D. Kapan,Durrell D. Kapan,Sean P. Mullen +8 more
TL;DR: Comparing full genome sequences of 32 butterflies, representing five species from a hybridizing Heliconius butterfly community, to examine genome-wide patterns of introgression and infer how divergence evolves during the speciation process provides a uniquely comprehensive portrait of the evolving species boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI
African evolutionary history inferred from whole genome sequence data of 44 indigenous African populations

TL;DR: High levels of genomic variation between ethnically diverse Africans which is largely correlated with geography and language are observed, indicating ancient population substructure and local adaptation of Africans.
