The paper uses ABC and machine learning to determine that the SLC30A9 rs1047626 polymorphism originated in Denisovans, introgressed into Neanderthals, and then into non-African humans, with differential selection pressures in different populations.

This study presents the first whole-genome sequencing of Sudanese populations, revealing complex admixture history and adaptive genetic variants related to malaria resistance in Sudanese Copts.

The paper identifies host genetic effects on microbiome composition in rats and finds evidence of indirect genetic effects contributing to missing heritability.

This study compares the microbiomes of wild and captive Montseny Brook Newts to identify differences and their implications for reintroduction success.

This study identifies genetic trade-offs between fertility, longevity, and disease risk, showing that disease-risk alleles can persist due to reproductive advantages.

This study uses polygenic risk scores to predict BMI increase in first-episode psychosis patients, finding shared genetic variants between schizophrenia and BMI contribute significantly to the prediction.
