The establishment of new populations from small groups of founders is one of the most common scenarios in modern conservation ...

Mapping by admixture linkage disequilibrium (MALD) is a genetic strategy for discovering genes that underlie complex diseases. The method is based on differences in disease-gene frequency between the ...

Adaptive radiation—the rapid evolution of many new species from a single ancestor—is a major focus in evolutionary biology. Adaptive radiations often show remarkable repeatability where lineages have ...

Researchers of the HSE International Laboratory of Statistical and Computational Genomics together with their international colleagues have proposed a new statistical method for analyzing population ...

Explore the power of genomics on your own desktop with practical tips for data manipulation and visualization. The data set has ~4,000 individuals, and ~30,000 markers. The binary file is ~25 MB. The ...

Despite advances in genetic analysis, clinicians and epidemiologists still disagree on the usefulness of race in clinical reporting. For example, sleep apnea is a condition that is more common in ...

Recently evaluated evidence suggests that organisms bred from different genetic lines have evolutionary advantages over more closely related members of the same species when colonizing new ...
