Abstract:
Abstract Motivation Population admixture is an important subject in population genetics. Inferring population demographic history with admixture under the so-called admixture network model from population genetic data is an established problem in genetics. Existing admixture network inference approaches work with single genetic polymorphisms. While these methods are usually very fast, they do not fully utilize the information [e.g. linkage disequilibrium (LD)] contained in population genetic data. Results In this article, we develop a new admixture network inference method called GTmix. Differ

Abstract Association studies using random population samples are increasingly being applied in the identification and inference of genetic effects of genes underlying complex traits. It is well recognized that population admixture may yield false-positive identification of genetic effects for complex traits. However, it is less well appreciated that population admixture can appear to mask, change, or reverse true genetic effects for genes underlying complex traits. By employing a simple population genetics model, we explore the effects and the conditions of population admixture in masking, cha

Abstract Aim Survival after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is dependent on donor/recipient (D/R) HLA matching. However disparities in survival were reported for some ethnicities despite comparable HLA matching. Individual ethnicities/races, as reported through self-identification, can change over time. Most studies have shown that African-American recipients (AAFA race) experience worse survival. Another way to investigate ancestry is to use Ancestry Informative Marker SNPs (AIMs), providing ancestral admixture. We hypothesized that information on donor and recipient genetic admixtur

Abstract Central South America primarily comprises seasonally dry tropical domains, where a sharp rainy season defines phenological and yearly growth patterns. Here we examine if the genetic structure of the understorey ground-herb Chamaecostus subsessilis species complex, from South American seasonally dry forests, is defined by intrinsic contrasting environments of the Cerrado and southern Amazonia. We analysed a dataset of c. 20 kb of sequence data from targeted capture high-throughput sequencing using PCR-generated probes. We used an admixture model and population pairwise FST comparisons

Evaluation and conservation of local genetic resources of the domestic honey bee populations is important, especially in regions with high diversity levels as well as high honey bee colony density. Greece is rich in honey bee biodiversity, hosting several subspecies, with the status of them being, though, doubtful. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the genetic relationships of both stationary and movable honey bee populations, originating from many location throughout Greece.

Rubber particles and straw powder were used to prepare recycled rubber straw concrete, and the freeze–thaw test was conducted on the recycled rubber straw concrete using the quick-freezing method. The frost resistance of the recycled rubber straw concrete was evaluated by determining the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity, the rate of mass loss, and the flexural strength of the recycled rubber straw concrete in the process of freezing and thawing.

Abstract Two commonly used population structure software packages are freely available for breed authentication, Structure and Admixture. Structure uses a Bayesian approach to model population structure, while Admixture uses a frequentist approach. More recently, an allele frequency method has been updated to use quadratic programming to constrain the multiple linear regression coefficients of the regression of genotype count (divided by two) on the matrix of allele frequencies for each known breed or line. This constraint forced coefficients to sum to one and be greater than or equal to 0 and

Abstract:
Admixture with archaic hominins has altered the landscape of genomic variation in modern human populations. Several gene regions have been identified previously as candidates of adaptive introgression (AI) that facilitated human adaptation to specific environments. However, simulation-based studies have suggested that population genetic processes other than adaptive mutations, such as heterosis from recessive deleterious variants private to populations before admixture, can also lead to patterns in genomic data that resemble AI.

Abstract:
Background: Population admixture is a common phenomenon in humans, animals, and plants, and it plays a very important role in shaping individual genetic architecture and population genetic diversity. Inference of population admixture, however, is very challenging and typically relies on in silico simulation. We are aware of the lack of a computerized tool for such a purpose. A simulator capable of generating data under various complex admixture scenarios would facilitate the study of recombination, linkage disequilibrium, ancestry tracing, and admixture dynamics in admixed populations.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Our current understanding of archaic admixture in humans relies on statistical methods with large biases, whose magnitudes depend on the sizes and separation times of ancestral populations. To avoid these biases, it is necessary to estimate these parameters simultaneously with those describing admixture. Genetic estimates of population histories also confront problems of statistical identifiability: different models or different combinations of parameter values may fit the data equally well. To deal with this problem, we need methods of model selection and model averaging,

ABSTRACTDescribing naturally occurring genetic variation is a fundamental goal of molecular phylogeography and population genetics. Popular methods for this task include STRUCTURE, a model‐based algorithm that assigns individuals to genetic clusters, and principal component analysis (PCA), a parameter‐free method. The ability of STRUCTURE to infer mixed ancestry makes it popular for documenting natural hybridisation, which is of considerable interest to evolutionary biologists, given that such systems provide a window into the speciation process. Yet, STRUCTURE can produce misleading results w

AbstractIndividuals of European descent have historically been the focus of genetic studies and possess relatively homogenous genomes. As a result, analytical methods have been developed and optimized with such genomes in mind. African‐descent and Latino individuals generally possess genomes of greater architectural complexity due to mosaic genomic ancestry, which can extensively and intricately impact phenotypic expression. As such, genetic analyses of admixed individuals require that genetic admixture be quantified to accurately model the impact of genetic variation on phenotypic expression.

Abstract qpAdm is a statistical tool that is often used for testing large sets of alternative admixture models for a target population. Despite its popularity, qpAdm remains untested on two-dimensional stepping-stone landscapes and in situations with low pre-study odds (low ratio of true to false models). We tested high-throughput qpAdm protocols with typical properties such as number of source combinations per target, model complexity, model feasibility criteria, etc. Those protocols were applied to admixture-graph-shaped and stepping-stone simulated histories sampled randomly or systematical
