Detection of human adaptation during the past 2000 years.
Detection of recent natural selection is a challenging problem in population genetics. Here we introduce the singleton density score (SDS), a method to infer very recent changes in allele frequencies from contemporary genome sequences. Applied to data from the UK10K Project, SDS reflects allele frequency changes in the ancestors of modern Britons during the past ~2000 to 3000 years. We see stro...
متن کاملHolocene glacier fluctuations
A global overview of glacier advances and retreats (grouped by regions and by millennia) for the Holocene is compiled from previous studies. The reconstructions of glacier fluctuations are based on 1) mapping and dating moraines defined by 14C, TCN, OSL, lichenometry and tree rings (discontinuous records/time series), and 2) sediments from proglacial lakes and speleothems (continuous records/ t...
متن کاملPhylogeography's past, present, and future: 10 years after Avise, 2000.
Approximately 20 years ago, Avise and colleagues proposed the integration of phylogenetics and population genetics for investigating the connection between micro- and macroevolutionary phenomena. The new field was termed phylogeography. Since the naming of the field, the statistical rigor of phylogeography has increased, in large part due to concurrent advances in coalescent theory which enable...
متن کاملDescriptive study of 110 patients with Hirsutism in Tehran Razi Hospital during the years 2000-01
Background: Hirsutism is a common clinical problem with different etiologic factors. Hence, clinical and laboratory studies are necessary to find these factors. Objectives: To determine the etiologic factors of hirsutism with clinical and paraclinical studies including TSH, DHEA-S, LH/FSH, testosterone, prolactin, 17-OH progesterone and sonography of ovary. Patients and Methods: This cross sect...
متن کاملWidespread drought episodes in the western Great Lakes region during the past 2000 years: Geographic extent and potential mechanisms
We compared high-resolution reconstructions of peatland water-table depth at two raised bogs in the western Great Lakes region separated by ∼1000 km. The sites included Minden Bog in southeastern Michigan and Hole-in-the-Bog in north-central Minnesota. Our objectives were to 1) determine whether large, decadal to multidecadal droughts of the past 2000 yrs were spatially and temporally coherent ...
