Abstract: In this study, we consider admixed populations through their expected heterozygosity, a measure of genetic diversity. A population is termed admixed if its members possess recent ancestry from two or more separate sources. As a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fsigss.2019.09.118
Abstract: Abstract To investigate the genetic background of the Marajo population, samples from unrelated individuals were selected, with matrilineal or patrilineal local ancestry for at least three generations. A total of 72 male samples were genotyped… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.17459
Abstract: Hybridization between divergent lineages can result in losses of distinct evolutionary taxa. Alternatively, hybridization can lead to increased genetic variability that may fuel local adaptation and the generation of novel traits and/or taxa. Here, we… read more here.
