Abstract excerpt
Creating a catalogue of early diverged genome variation is critical to determine the true extent of human diversity and associated medical impact. Generating deep whole genome data for 150 Khoe-San (12 groups, 1 unclassified), and 40 regionally comparative Southern Africans (3 groups), we identify ~30 million small-to-large variants - over 1.3 million unknown single nucleotide variants. Representing shared...
