A distinct brain expression profile for genes within large introgression deserts and under positive selection in <i>Homo sapiens</i>

2021-03-28

Abstract excerpt

Analyses of ancient DNA from extinct hominins have provided unique insights into the complex evolutionary history of Homo sapiens , intricately related to that of the Neanderthals and the Denisovans as revealed by several instances of admixture events. These analyses have also allowed the identification of introgression deserts: genomic regions in our species that are depleted of ‘archaic’ haplotypes. The presenc...
