Population size influences the type of nucleotide variations in humans.

BMC genetics - 5 Dec 2019

Subramanian Sankar

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: It is well known that the effective size of a population (Ne) is one of the major determinants of the amount of genetic variation within the population. However, it is unclear whether the types of genetic variations are also dictated by the effective population size. To examine this, we obtained whole genome data from over 100 populations of the world and investigated the patterns of mutational...
