This study evaluates the reliability of local ancestry inference methods for imputed ancient genomes across various demographic and sampling scenarios.

The paper reassesses selection on height using GWAS and allele frequency data, finding positive selection at height-associated loci in Europe.

This study imputes ancient dog and wolf genomes to analyze inbreeding history over 10,000 years, finding lower inbreeding in ancient populations and associations between low ROH regions and olfaction/immune genes.

This study uses a multivariate GWAS approach to identify genetic loci associated with reading ability and dyslexia, finding 35 new genome-wide significant loci and estimating SNP heritability at 24%.

This paper uses ancient genomes to trace the spread of Germanic languages in Europe, identifying a Baltic origin and migration patterns that challenge traditional timelines.

The paper traces the evolutionary history of the CCR5delta32 deletion using ancient and modern genomes, finding it originated at least 7,000 years ago in Western Eurasia and underwent positive selection.

HAYSTAC provides a Bayesian framework for accurate and efficient species identification in metagenomic data, outperforming existing tools in reducing false positives and handling degraded DNA.
