Global human genetic variation is greatly influenced by geography, with genetic
differentiation between populations increasing with geographic distance and within …

Population mixture is an important process in biology. We present a suite of methods for
learning about population mixtures, implemented in a software package called …

Despite our relatively large population size, humans are genetically less variable than other
primates. Many allele frequencies and statistical descriptors of genome diversity form broad …

India has been underrepresented in genome-wide surveys of human variation. We analyse
25 diverse groups in India to provide strong evidence for two ancient populations …

Africa is the source of all modern humans, but characterization of genetic variation and of
relationships among populations across the continent has been enigmatic. We studied 121 …

Genome-wide patterns of homozygosity runs and their variation across individuals provide a
valuable and often untapped resource for studying human genetic diversity and evolutionary …

On the basis of simulated data, this study compares the relative performances of the
Bayesian clustering computer programs structure, geneland, geneclust and a new program …

We examined genetic diversity and population structure in the American landmass using
678 autosomal microsatellite markers genotyped in 422 individuals representing 24 Native …

Various observations argue for a role of adaptation in recent human evolution, including
results from genome-wide studies and analyses of selection signals at candidate genes …

Over the past two decades, microsatellite genotypes have provided the data for landmark
studies of human population-genetic variation. However, the various microsatellite data sets …
