    Sammanfattning : The origin of humans lies in Africa, as has been shown by archaeology, paleontology and genetics. Here, we can find the largest genetic diversity and the deepest split among human populations. African genetic diversity has been shaped by a long and complex history. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Ancient DNA as a Means to Investigate the European Neolithic

    Författare :Helena Malmström; Anders Göterström; Gunilla Holmlund; T Brown; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecular genetics; aDNA; contamination; authentication; mtDNA; Neolithisation; Genetik;

    Sammanfattning : The transition from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to a farming lifestyle, i.e. the Neolithisation, is arguably the most important event in human prehistory. While the geography and dating of the Neolithisation is well known, the process is still under debate, especially if it occurred through diffusion of ideas or with migrating farmers. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Demographic History and Adaptation in African Populations

    Författare :Mário Vicente; Carina Schlebusch; Mattias Jakobsson; Lluis Quintana-Murci; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; African demography; human evolutionary genetics; population structure; population admixture; genetic adaptation;

    Sammanfattning : Africa is the continent where modern humans originated and yet, African demographic history remains largely unknown. Through analyzing the genetic composition of extant and extinct individuals, it is possible to reveal signals of past demographic history and adaptation. LÄS MER
