Inferences of African evolutionary history from genomic data.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Dec 2016

Beltrame Marcia Holsbach, Rubel Meagan A, Tishkoff Sarah A

Abstract excerpt

Africa is the origin of anatomically modern humans and a continent of linguistic, cultural, environmental, phenotypic, and genetic diversity. However, African populations remain underrepresented in genetic studies, which have largely focused on individuals with European and Asian ancestry. The expansion of high-throughput 'omic' technologies to interrogate multiple tissue types across many biomolecules-DNA,...
