Population history and genetic adaptation of the Fulani nomads: Inferences from genome-wide data and the lactase persistence trait
2019-05-27
Abstract excerpt
Human population history in the Holocene was profoundly impacted by changes in lifestyle following the invention and adoption of food-production practices. These changes triggered significant increases in population sizes and expansions over large distances. Here we investigate the population history of the Fulani, a pastoral population extending throughout the African Sahel/Savannah belt. Based on genome-wide ana...
