Holocene selection for variants associated with cognitive ability: Comparing ancient and modern genomes

2017-02-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Human populations living in Eurasia during the Holocene experienced considerable microevolutionary change. It has been predicted that the transition of Holocene populations into agrarianism and urbanization brought about culture-gene coevolution that favoured via directional selection genetic variants associated with higher general cognitive ability (GCA). To examine whether GCA might have risen...
