Population genetic inference from genomic sequence variation.
Population genetics has evolved from a theory-driven field with little empirical data into a data-driven discipline in which genome-scale data sets test the limits of available models and computational analysis methods. In humans and a few model organisms, analyses of whole-genome sequence polymorphism data are currently under way. And in light of the falling costs of next-generation sequencing...
متن کاملPopulation genetic inference from personal genome data: impact of ancestry and admixture on human genomic variation.
Full sequencing of individual human genomes has greatly expanded our understanding of human genetic variation and population history. Here, we present a systematic analysis of 50 human genomes from 11 diverse global populations sequenced at high coverage. Our sample includes 12 individuals who have admixed ancestry and who have varying degrees of recent (within the last 500 years) African, Nati...
متن کاملDemographic inference using genetic data from a single individual: Separating population size variation from population structure.
The rapid development of sequencing technologies represents new opportunities for population genetics research. It is expected that genomic data will increase our ability to reconstruct the history of populations. While this increase in genetic information will likely help biologists and anthropologists to reconstruct the demographic history of populations, it also represents new challenges. Re...
متن کاملMinimal-assumption inference from population-genomic data
Samples of multiple complete genome sequences contain vast amounts of information about the evolutionary history of populations, much of it in the associations among polymorphisms at different loci. We introduce a method, Minimal-Assumption Genomic Inference of Coalescence (MAGIC), that reconstructs key features of the evolutionary history, including the distribution of coalescence times, by in...

Statistical, algorithmic, and robustness aspects of population demographic inference from genomic variation data by Anand Bhaskar Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Yun S. Song, Chair The recent availability of large-sample high-throughput sequencing data has given us an unprecedented opportunity to very finely resolve the details of historical...
