Human genetic admixture through the lens of population genomics
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We also outline some challenges for admixture population genetics, including limitations of applying methods designed for single-ancestry populations to the study of admixed populations. ...
The admixture process introduces unique patterns of genetic variation within and between populations, which in turn influences the inference of demographic histories, identification genetic targets of ...
As demonstrated in the bottom panel of Figure 1 , no individual locus in a genome from an admixed population will enable inference of the demographic history of the admixed group. ...

RFMix: A Discriminative Modeling Approach for Rapid and Robust Local-Ancestry Inference
2013
American Journal of Human Genetics
Local-ancestry inference is an important step in the genetic analysis of fully sequenced human genomes. ...
RFMix is capable of learning from the admixed samples themselves to boost performance and autocorrect phasing errors. ...
Also, because local ancestry can be inferred on each chromosome in the genome independently, we describe the analysis of one chromosome in the genome. ...

Efficient inference of local ancestry
2013
Bioinformatics
Motivation: The inference of local ancestry of admixed individuals at every locus provides the basis for admixture mapping. ...
Results: In this study, we developed a statistical method, efficient inference of local ancestry (EILA), which uses fused quantile regression and k-means classifier to infer the local ancestry for admixed ...
Based on these assumptions, we infer local ancestry using three samples: one study sample of admixed individuals with unknown local ancestry and two reference samples from different ancestral populations ...

Sensitive Detection of Chromosomal Segments of Distinct Ancestry in Admixed Populations
2009
PLoS Genetics
HAPMIX will be of particular utility for mapping disease genes in recently admixed populations, as its accurate estimates of local ancestry permit admixture and case-control association signals to be combined ...
Most methods require the use of unlinked markers; but, using all markers from genomewide scanning arrays, it should in principle be possible to infer the ancestry of even very small segments with exquisite ...

Enhanced Methods for Local Ancestry Assignment in Sequenced Admixed Individuals
2014
PLoS Computational Biology
Inferring the ancestry at each locus in the genome of recently admixed individuals (e.g., Latino Americans) plays a major role in medical and population genetic inferences, ranging from finding disease-risk ...
Finally, we generalize CSVs to sub-continental population-specific variants (sCSVs) and show that in some cases it is possible to determine the sub-continental ancestry for short chromosomal segments on ...
Acknowledgments We would like to acknowledge Kirk Lohmueller, John Novembre, Diego Ortega, Gleb Kichaev and Wen-Yun Yang for useful discussion that has greatly improved the quality of this manuscript. ...

Human genetic admixture
2021
PLoS Genetics
This process leads to subsequent shuffling of genetic ancestry through recombination, producing variation in ancestry between populations, among individuals in a population, and along the genome within ...
Recent methodological and empirical developments have elucidated the genomic signatures of this admixture process, bringing previously understudied admixed populations to the forefront of population and ...

Molecular biology and evolution
Admixture studies rely on local ancestry inference for admixed individuals, which consists of computing at each locus the number of copies that originate from ancestral source populations. ...
Here, we introduce Loter, an open-source software package that does not require any biological parameter besides haplotype data in order to make local ancestry inference available for a wide range of species ...
We use the first 500, 000 SNPs of chromosome 6 to reconstruct ancestry tracts. We simulate 16 admixed individuals based on 20 genotypes from P. balsamifera and P. trichocarpa species. ...
