    • Howand when the Americas were populated remains contentious. Using ancient and modern genome-wide data, we found that the ancestors of all present-day Native Americans, including Athabascans and Amerindians, entered the Americas as a single migration wave from Siberia no earlier than 23 thousand years ago (ka) and after no more than an 8000-year isolation period in Beringia. After their arrival to the Americas, ancestral Native Americans diversified into two basal genetic branches around 13 ka, one that is now dispersed across North and South America and the other restricted to North America. Subsequent gene flow resulted in some Native Americans sharing ancestry with present-day East Asians (including Siberians) and, more distantly, Australo-Melanesians. Putative "Paleoamerican" relict populations, including the historical Mexican Pericues and South American Fuego-Patagonians, are not directly related to modern Australo-Melanesians as suggested by the Paleoamerican Model.

  • The inference of sex-biased human demography from whole-genome data
  • 2019
  • In: PLOS Genetics. - : Public Library of Science (PLoS). - 1553-7390 .- 1553-7404. ; 15:9
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Sex-biased demographic events (“sex-bias”) involve unequal numbers of females and males. These events are typically inferred from the relative amount of X-chromosomal to autosomal genetic variation and have led to conflicting conclusions about human demographic history. Though population size changes alter the relative amount of X-chromosomal to autosomal genetic diversity even in the absence of sex-bias, this has generally not been accounted for in sex-bias estimators to date. Here, we present a novel method to identify sex-bias from genetic sequence data that models population size changes and estimates the female fraction of the effective population size during each time epoch. Compared to recent sex-bias inference methods, our approach can detect sex-bias that changes on a single population branch without requiring data from an outgroup or knowledge of divergence events. When applied to simulated data, conventional sex-bias estimators are biased by population size changes, especially recent growth or bottlenecks, while our estimator is unbiased. We next apply our method to high-coverage exome data from the 1000 Genomes Project and estimate a male bias in Yorubans (47% female) and Europeans (44%), possibly due to stronger background selection on the X chromosome than on the autosomes. Finally, we apply our method to the 1000 Genomes Project Phase 3 high-coverage Complete Genomics whole-genome data and estimate a female bias in Yorubans (63% female), Europeans (84%), Punjabis (82%), as well as Peruvians (56%), and a male bias in the Southern Han Chinese (45%). Our method additionally identifies a male-biased migration out of Africa based on data from Europeans (20% female). Our results demonstrate that modeling population size change is necessary to estimate sex-bias parameters accurately. Our approach gives insight into signatures of sex-bias in sexual species, and the demographic models it produces can serve as more accurate null models for tests of selection.
