Massive migration from the steppe is a source for Indo-European languages in Europe
Wolfgang Haak, Iosif Lazaridis, Nick Patterson +36
We generated genome-wide data from 69 Europeans who lived between 8,000-3,000 years ago by enriching ancient DNA libraries for a target set of almost four hundred thousand polymorp…
Ancient human genomes suggest three ancestral populations for present-day Europeans
Iosif Lazaridis, Nick Patterson, Alissa Mittnik +117
We sequenced genomes from a 7,000 year old early farmer from Stuttgart in Germany, an 8,000 year old hunter-gatherer from Luxembourg, and seven 8,000 year old hun…
Fast and accurate imputation of summary statistics enhances evidence of functional enrichment
Bogdan Pasaniuc, Noah Zaitlen, Huwenbo Shi +7
Imputation using external reference panels is a widely used approach for increasing power in GWAS and meta-analysis. Existing HMM-based imputation approaches require individual-lev…
Ancient west Eurasian ancestry in southern and eastern Africa
Joseph K. Pickrell, Nick Patterson, Po-Ru Loh +5
The history of southern Africa involved interactions between indigenous hunter-gatherers and a range of populations that moved into the region. Here we use genome-wide genetic data…
Estimating heterozygosity from a low-coverage genome sequence, leveraging data from other individuals sequenced at the same sites
Katarzyna Bryc, Nick Patterson, David Reich
High-throughput shotgun sequence data makes it possible in principle to accurately estimate population genetic parameters without confounding by SNP ascertainment bias. One such st…
Reconstructing Roma history from genome-wide data
Priya Moorjani, Nick Patterson, Po-Ru Loh +9
The Roma people, living throughout Europe, are a diverse population linked by the Romani language and culture. Previous linguistic and genetic studies have suggested that the Roma…
