Fine-scale Inference of Ancestry Segments without Prior Knowledge of Admixing Groups

2018-07-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> We present an algorithm for inferring ancestry segments and characterizing admixture events, which involve an arbitrary number of genetically differentiated groups coming together. This allows inference of the demographic history of the species, properties of admixing groups, identification of signatures of natural selection, and may aid disease gene mapping. The algorithm employs nested hidden...
