Journal Article
mtDNA variation of aboriginal Siberians reveals distinct genetic affinities with native Americans
Antonio Torroni,Rem I. Sukernik,Theodore G. Schurr,Y B Starikorskaya,Margaret F. Cabell,Michael H. Crawford,A G Comuzzie,Douglas C. Wallace +7 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that the first humans to move from Siberia to the Americas carried with them a limited number of founding mtDNAs is supported and that the initial migration occurred between 17,000-34,000 years before present.

TL;DR: The selective constraints of deletions versus duplications were compared to understand population stratification in the context of the ancestral human genome and to assess differences in CNV load between African and non-African populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptations to Climate-Mediated Selective Pressures in Humans
Angela M. Hancock,David B. Witonsky,Gorka Alkorta-Aranburu,Cynthia M. Beall,Amha Gebremedhin,Rem I. Sukernik,Gerd Utermann,Jonathan K. Pritchard,Jonathan K. Pritchard,Graham Coop,Graham Coop,Anna Di Rienzo +11 more
TL;DR: The human genome is scanned for selection signals by identifying the SNPs with the strongest correlations between allele frequencies and climate across 61 worldwide populations, finding a striking enrichment of genic and nonsynonymous SNPs relative to non-genic SNPs among those that are strongly correlated with these climate variables.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colloquium Paper: Human adaptations to diet, subsistence, and ecoregion are due to subtle shifts in allele frequency

TL;DR: This work combines population genetics data with ecological information to detect variants that increased in frequency in response to new selective pressures, and finds particularly strong signals associated with polar ecoregions, with foraging, and with a diet rich in roots and tubers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial DNA Variation in Koryaks and Itel'men: Population Replacement in the Okhotsk Sea-Bering Sea Region During the Neolithic
TL;DR: Results were consistent with colonization events associated with the relatively recent immigration to Kamchatka of new tribes from the Siberian mainland region, although remnants of ancient Beringian populations were still evident in the Koryak and Itel'men gene pools.
