Reconstructing the history of founder events using genome-wide patterns of allele sharing across individuals
2020-09-07
Abstract excerpt
Founder events play a critical role in shaping genetic diversity, impacting the fitness of a species and disease risk in humans. Yet our understanding of the prevalence and distribution of founder events in humans and other species remains incomplete, as most existing methods for characterizing founder events require large sample sizes or phased genomes. To learn about the frequency and evolutionary history of fou...
