The Yamnaya expansions from the western steppe into Europe and Asia during Early Bronze Age (~3000 BCE) are believed to have brought with them Indo-European languages possibly horse husbandry. We analyzed 74 ancient whole-genome sequences across Inner Anatolia show that Botai people associated earliest husbandry derived a hunter-gatherer population deeply diverged Yamnaya. Our results also suggest distinct migrations bringing West Eurasian ancestry South before after, but not at time of,...
Abstract Western Eurasia witnessed several large-scale human migrations during the Holocene 1–5 . Here, to investigate cross-continental effects of these migrations, we shotgun-sequenced 317 genomes—mainly from Mesolithic and Neolithic periods—from across northern western Eurasia. These were imputed alongside published data obtain diploid genotypes more than 1,600 ancient humans. Our analyses revealed a ‘great divide’ genomic boundary extending Black Sea Baltic. hunter-gatherers highly...
Summary Western Eurasia witnessed several large-scale human migrations during the Holocene 1–5 . To investigate cross-continental impacts we shotgun-sequenced 317 primarily Mesolithic and Neolithic genomes from across Northern Eurasia. These were imputed alongside published data to obtain diploid genotypes >1,600 ancient humans. Our analyses revealed a ‘Great Divide’ genomic boundary extending Black Sea Baltic. hunter-gatherers (HGs) highly genetically differentiated east west of this...
During the early 3rd millennium BCE migration from Pontic Steppe, mainly related to Yamnaya culture, has affected European populations both culturally and genetically, however, it long been debated what extent this was male-driven, how replacement process took place which eliminated partially/largely Neolithic male lines over time.This paper aims evaluate influence of Steppe on Bronze Age by calculating female genetic contributions Steppe-related ancestry populations. With approach, we will...
Dwarfing genes play an important role in improving yield and adaptability of wheat cultivars most production environments. Understanding the allelic distribution at dwarfing loci is very for any wheat-breeding programmes. In this study, we reported constitution microsatellite locus Xgwm261 two major height-reducing Rht-B1 Rht-D1 among a set 56 bread nine landraces, based on diagnostic polymerase chain reaction assays. With respect to Rht-B1, 37% accessions carried allele Rht-B1b , while...
Summary Today, Germanic languages, including German, English, Frisian, Dutch and the Nordic are widely spoken in northwest Europe. However, key aspects of assumed arrival diversification this linguistic group remain contentious 1–3 . By adding 712 new ancient human genomes we find an archaeologically elusive population entering Sweden from Baltic region by around 4000 BP. This became widespread throughout Scandinavia 3500 BP, matching contemporaneous distribution Palaeo-Germanic, Bronze Age...
Abstract Although Brazil was inhabited by more than 3,000 Indigenous populations prior to European colonization, today’s peoples represent less 1% of Brazil’s census population. Some the decimated communities belonged so-called “Botocudos” from central-eastern Brazil. These are thought a case long-standing genetic continuity bearing strong craniometric resemblance that oldest Americans (“Paleoamericans”). Yet, little is known about their origins and relationship other Native Americans, as...
Summary The Indo-European languages are among the most widely spoken in world, yet their early diversification remains contentious 1–5 . It is accepted that spread of this language family across Europe from 5th millennium BP correlates with expansion and steppe-related genetic ancestry onset Bronze Age 6,7 However, multiple steppe-derived populations co-existed during period, it unclear how these diverged which provided demographic channels for ancestral forms Italic, Celtic, Greek, Armenian...
