This study analyzes gut microbiome and resistome diversity in Indigenous Orang Asli communities in Malaysia, finding that urbanization reduces microbial diversity but increases antibiotic resistance gene diversity.

This study identifies novel prophages and integrative conjugative elements in E. anophelis clinical isolates using long-read sequencing, highlighting their role in antimicrobial resistance and phage defense.

The paper identifies 56 recent functional variants in modern humans, 24 linked to brain functions and skull morphology, which did not introgress into Neanderthals.

The paper presents whole-genome sequences from 16 Himalayan populations to study population structure, adaptation, and genetic history, revealing early population divergence, shared adaptive haplotypes, and recent gene flow.

The paper uses genome assembly and population genomics to show Altai falcons are a distinct species with unique genetic traits.

The paper identifies potentially harmful genetic variants in euploid miscarriage embryos and highlights specific genes linked to miscarriage risk.

This study presents 929 high-coverage human genome sequences from 54 populations, revealing new insights into genetic variation and population history.

The paper confirms a positive selection signal at the ABCA12 gene in Europeans and East-Asians and refines its genomic location, finding no direct effect on gene expression but tracing the T allele's trajectory in human history.

The paper identifies genomic regions with high or low population differentiation using 911 whole-genome sequences, finding that highly differentiated sites are enriched for positive selection.
