DOI: 10.1007/s00439-018-1908-x
Abstract: Several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants associated with birth weight. To date, however, most GWAS of birth weight have focused primarily on European ancestry samples even though prevalence of low birth weight… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evad065
Abstract: Abstract Humans have had a major influence on the dissemination of crops beyond their native range, thereby offering new hybridization opportunities. Characterizing admixed genomes with mosaic origins generates valuable insight into the adaptive history of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddab213
Abstract: Chagas disease is an infection caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, endemic in Latino America. Leveraging the three-way admixture between Native American (AMR), European (EUR) and African (AFR) populations in Latin Americans, we aimed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/thorax-2022-218755
Abstract: Background In the USA, genetically admixed populations have the highest asthma prevalence and severe asthma exacerbations rates. This could be explained not only by environmental factors but also by genetic variants that exert ethnic-specific effects.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0188400
Abstract: Admixture mapping can be used to detect genetic association regions in admixed populations, such as Hispanics/Latinos, by estimating associations between local ancestry allele counts and the trait of interest. We performed admixture mapping of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.754440
Abstract: Sepsis is a severe systemic inflammatory response to infections that is accompanied by organ dysfunction. Although the ancestral genetic background is a relevant factor for sepsis susceptibility, there is a lack of studies using the… read more here.
