Locus-specific ancestry to detect recent response to selection in admixed Swiss Fleckvieh cattle
(2016-12-01)
Identification of selection signatures is one of the current endeavors of evolutionary genetics. Admixed populations may be used to infer post-admixture selection. We calculated local ancestry for Swiss Fleckvieh, a composite ...
Historical records under the genetic evidence: “Chiriguano” tribe genesis as a test case
(Springer, 2018-10)
Historical records suggest that Chiriguano tribe is the result of a genetic admixture event. The process involved the arrival of Guaraní tribesmen descending from Amazonian region of Brazil along with groups of Arawak ...
Geographic patterns of genome admixture in Latin American mestizos
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2008-03)
The large and diverse population of Latin America is potentially a powerful resource for elucidating the genetic basis of
complex traits through admixture mapping. However, no genome-wide characterization of admixture ...
A genomewide admixture mapping panel for hispanic/latino populations
(The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2007-06)
Admixture mapping (AM) is a promising method for the identification of genetic risk factors for complex traits and
diseases showing prevalence differences among populations. Efficient application of this method requires the ...
Defense Response in Brazilian Honey Bees (Apis mellifera scutellata × spp.) Is Underpinned by Complex Patterns of Admixture
(2020-08-01)
In 1957, an invasive and highly defensive honey bee began to spread across Brazil. In the previous year, Brazilian researchers hoped to produce a subtropical-adapted honey bee by crossing local commercial honey bees (of ...
Migration in Afro-Brazilian Rural Communities: Crossing Demographic and Genetic Data
(WAYNE STATE UNIV PRESS, 2011)
Many studies have used genetic markers to understand global migration patterns of our species. However, there are only few studies of human migration on a local scale. We, therefore, researched migration dynamics in three ...
Genetic admixture patterns in Argentinian Patagonia
(Public Library of Science, 2019-06)
As in other Latin American populations, Argentinians are the result of the admixtureamongst different continental groups, mainly from America and Europe, and to a lesserextent from Sub-Saharan Africa. However, it is known ...
