Population genetic structure refers to the non-random distribution of genetic variation within and between populations of a species. It arises from factors such as migration, drift, selection and ...
Gene flow acts as a conduit of genetic variation among populations, while local adaptation arises when selection favours alleles suited to particular environmental conditions. In natural populations ...
The researchers identified regions with Neandertal ancestry in over 300 individuals. They assessed sharing of segments, inferred gene flow, and looked at variation to identify candidates for positive ...

Denisovans shared a tooth-building gene with a far older human, Homo erectus
Six teeth from Homo erectus individuals who lived roughly 400,000 years ago in China have yielded enamel proteins carrying an ...
The established conservation practice of relocating animals from large, genetically diverse populations to small communities of inbred endangered species may risk introducing more damaging than ...
In a Policy Forum, Andrew Baker and colleagues discuss the recent regulatory action in Florida that has enabled the world’s first international coral exchange. The exchange was done to bolster genetic ...
A new fossil DNA study has rewritten the evolutionary history of the horse, showing that the extinct Dalian horse from ...
Believed to be restricted to northeastern China, genomic analysis shows the Dalian horse’s range extended to southern Siberia and Yakutia.
