Assessments of population genetic structure have become an increasing focus as they can
provide valuable insight into patterns of migration and gene flow. structure, the most highly …

Speciation, the evolution of reproductive isolation among populations, is continuous,
complex, and involves multiple, interacting barriers. Until it is complete, the effects of this …

Admixed populations are routinely excluded from genomic studies due to concerns over
population structure. Here, we present a statistical framework and software package, Tractor …

Local-ancestry inference is an important step in the genetic analysis of fully sequenced
human genomes. Current methods can only detect continental-level ancestry (ie, European …

This article explores contemporary biopolitics in the light of Michel Foucault's oft quoted
suggestion that contemporary politics callslife itself'into question. It suggests that recent …

Current methods for inferring population structure from genetic data do not provide formal
significance tests for population differentiation. We discuss an approach to studying …

Genetic factors strongly affect susceptibility to common diseases and also influence disease-
related quantitative traits. Identifying the relevant genes has been difficult, in part because …

Genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified a large number of SNPs
associated with disease phenotypes. As most GWA studies have been performed in …

Human facial diversity is substantial, complex, and largely scientifically unexplained. We
used spatially dense quasi-landmarks to measure face shape in population samples with …

Identifying the ancestry of chromosomal segments of distinct ancestry has a wide range of
applications from disease map** to learning about history. Most methods require the use …
