Abstract excerpt
Common alleles tend to be more ancient than rare alleles. These common SNPs appeared thousands of years ago and reflect intricate human evolution including various adaptations, admixtures, and migration events. Eighty-four thousand abundant region-specific alleles (ARSAs) that are common in one continent but absent in the rest of the world have been characterized by processing 3100 genomes from 230 populations....
