On the limits of fitting complex models of population history to f-statistics
Our understanding of population history in deep time has been assisted by fitting admixture
graphs (AGs) to data: models that specify the ordering of population splits and mixtures …

Dog domestication and the dual dispersal of people and dogs into the Americas
Advances in the isolation and sequencing of ancient DNA have begun to reveal the
population histories of both people and dogs. Over the last 10,000 y, the genetic signatures …

Ancient DNA indicates human population shifts and admixture in northern and southern China
Human genetic history in East Asia is poorly understood. To clarify population relationships,
we obtained genome-wide data from 26 ancient individuals from northern and southern East …
