DOI: 10.1016/j.ajhg.2022.02.011
Abstract: Admixture has been a pervasive phenomenon in human history, extensively shaping the patterns of population genetic diversity. There is increasing evidence to suggest that admixture can also facilitate genetic adaptation to local environments, i.e., admixed… read more here.
