Extensive Admixture and Selective Pressure Across the Sahel Belt.

Genome biology and evolution - 26 Nov 2015

Triska Petr, Soares Pedro, Patin Etienne, Fernandes Veronica, Cerny Viktor, Pereira Luisa

Abstract excerpt

Genome-wide studies of African populations have the potential to reveal powerful insights into the evolution of our species, as these diverse populations have been exposed to intense selective pressures imposed by infectious diseases, diet, and environmental factors. Within Africa, the Sahel Belt extensively overlaps the geographical center of several endemic infections such as malaria, trypanosomiasis,...
