Fast model-based estimation of ancestry in unrelated individuals
Population stratification has long been recognized as a confounding factor in genetic association studies. Estimated ancestries, derived from multi-locus genotype data, can be u...
Population Structure and Eigenanalysis
Current methods for inferring population structure from genetic data do not provide formal significance tests for population differentiation. We discuss an approach to studying ...
Bayesian inference of population size history from multiple loci
The results demonstrate the essential role of multiple loci in recovering population size dynamics. Multi-locus data from a small number of individuals can precisely recover pas...
Using allele frequencies and geographic subdivision to reconstruct gene trees within a species: molecular variance parsimony.
Abstract We formalize the use of allele frequency and geographic information for the construction of gene trees at the intraspecific level and extend the concept of evolutionary...
Estimation of individual admixture: Analytical and study design considerations
Abstract The genome of an admixed individual represents a mixture of alleles from different ancestries. In the United States, the two largest minority groups, African‐Americans ...
