Recent genetic selection in the ancestral admixture of Puerto Ricans.
Recent studies have used dense markers to examine the human genome in ancestrally homogeneous populations for hallmarks of selection. No genomewide studies have focused on recently admixed groups--populations that have experienced admixing among continentally divided ancestral populations within the past 200-500 years. New World admixed populations are unique in that they represent the sudden c...
متن کاملGenetic linkage and natural selection.
The prevalence of recombination in eukaryotes poses one of the most puzzling questions in biology. The most compelling general explanation is that recombination facilitates selection by breaking down the negative associations generated by random drift (i.e. Hill-Robertson interference, HRI). I classify the effects of HRI owing to: deleterious mutation, balancing selection and selective sweeps o...
متن کاملPopulation genetic structure in Indian Austroasiatic speakers: the role of landscape barriers and sex-specific admixture.
The geographic origin and time of dispersal of Austroasiatic (AA) speakers, presently settled in south and southeast Asia, remains disputed. Two rival hypotheses, both assuming a demic component to the language dispersal, have been proposed. The first of these places the origin of Austroasiatic speakers in southeast Asia with a later dispersal to south Asia during the Neolithic, whereas the sec...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithms: Artificial Selection vs Natural Selection
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are a stochastic searching and optimizing method inspired by the biological mechanism of natural selection and evolution. To improve the searching power of GAs for complicated problems, many deterministic measures, particularly, experience and/or expert knowledge-based heuristic rules, have been studied in the existing literature. This paper proposes a potentially more ...
متن کاملGenetic and Epigenetic landscape of Germline Stem Cells
Elucidating the critical epigenetics events involved in differentiation and reprogramming of cells to primordial germ cells (PGCs) is among the interesting issues in stem cell research. Here, I will talk about critical transcription factors and global hypomethylation in development of germ cells. Evidence strongly suggests that the earliest PGCs emerging in the E7.25 mouse embryo epiblast have...
