Signatures of founder effects, admixture, and selection in the Ashkenazi Jewish population.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 14 Sept 2010

Abstract excerpt

The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population has long been viewed as a genetic isolate, yet it is still unclear how population bottlenecks, admixture, or positive selection contribute to its genetic structure. Here we analyzed a large AJ cohort and found higher linkage disequilibrium (LD) and identity-by-descent relative to Europeans, as expected for an isolate. However, paradoxically we also found higher genetic...
