Abstract excerpt
Ongoing retrotransposition of Alu, LINE-1, and SINE-VNTR-Alu elements generates diversity and variation among human populations. Previous analyses investigating the population genetics of mobile element insertions (MEIs) have been limited by population ascertainment bias or by relatively small numbers of populations and low sequencing coverage. Here, we use 296 individuals representing 142 global populations from...
