Genomic impact of the second plague pandemic on three human populations

Xiaodong Liu, Kristjan H. S. Moore, S. Sunna Ebenesersdóttir, Caroline Arcini, Gordon Turner‐Walker, Sean Dexter Denham, Philip Slavin, Maja Birk Søtofte, Sascha Dreyer, Martin R. Ellegaard, Åshild J. Vågene‬, Ashot Margaryan, Miren Iraeta-Orbegozo, Dorothea Mylopotamitaki, Jason E. Laffoon, , Ida Moltke

This study analyzes ancient DNA from three European sites to assess the genomic impact of the second plague pandemic, finding no strong positive selection but evidence of reduced long-range immigration post-pandemic.
