Principal component analysis under population genetic models of range expansion and admixture.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jun 2010

François Olivier, Currat Mathias, Ray Nicolas, Han Eunjung, Excoffier Laurent, Novembre John

Abstract excerpt

In a series of highly influential publications, Cavalli-Sforza and colleagues used principal component (PC) analysis to produce maps depicting how human genetic diversity varies across geographic space. Within Europe, the first axis of variation (PC1) was interpreted as evidence for the demic diffusion model of agriculture, in which farmers expanded from the Near East approximately 10,000 years ago and replaced...
