In this paper we present script analysis for the indigenous scripts of African languages, with particular emphasis to Amharic language. Amharic is the official and working language of Ethiopia, which has its own writing system. This is the first attempt to analyze scripts of African language to...
متن کاملThe making of the African mtDNA landscape.
Africa presents the most complex genetic picture of any continent, with a time depth for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages >100,000 years. The most recent widespread demographic shift within the continent was most probably the Bantu dispersals, which archaeological and linguistic evidence suggest originated in West Africa 3,000-4,000 years ago, spreading both east and south. Here, we have carr...
متن کاملAfrican Indigenous Cattle: Unique Genetic Resources in a Rapidly Changing World
At least 150 indigenous African cattle breeds have been named, but the majority of African cattle populations remain largely uncharacterized. As cattle breeds and populations in Africa adapted to various local environmental conditions, they acquired unique features. We know now that the history of African cattle was particularly complex and while several of its episodes remain debated, there is...
متن کاملThe Genome Landscape of the African Green Monkey Kidney-Derived Vero Cell Line
Continuous cell lines that originate from mammalian tissues serve as not only invaluable tools for life sciences, but also important animal cell substrates for the production of various types of biological pharmaceuticals. Vero cells are susceptible to various types of microbes and toxins and have widely contributed to not only microbiology, but also the production of vaccines for human use. We...
