In the past decade, advances in genome sequencing have allowed researchers to uncover
the history of hybridization in diverse groups of species, including our own. Although the …

Global environmental changes strongly impact wild and domesticated species biology and
their associated ecosystem services. For crops, global warming has led to significant …

The Million Veteran Program (MVP), initiated by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA),
aims to collect biosamples with consent from at least one million veterans. Presently, blood …

Ever since its emergence in 1984, the field of ancient DNA has struggled to overcome the
challenges related to the decay of DNA molecules in the fossil record. With the recent …

Inferring subject ancestry using genetic data is an important step in genetic association
studies, required for dealing with population stratification. It has become more challenging to …

Motivation Local ancestry inference (LAI) is the high resolution prediction of ancestry labels
along a DNA sequence. LAI is important in the study of human history and migrations, and it …

The genetic diversity of Taenioides cirratus was investigated on the basis of mitochondrial
cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and cytochrome b (Cytb) gene sequences. A total of …

Admixed populations constitute a large portion of global human genetic diversity, yet they
are often left out of genomics analyses. This exclusion is problematic, as it leads to …

Since the introduction of wheat into Australia by the First Fleet settlers, germplasm from
different geographical origins has been used to adapt wheat to the Australian climate …

Background As a powerful complement to the paradigmatic DNA profiling strategy,
biogeographical ancestry inference (BGAI) plays a significant part in human forensic …
