A new genomic study reveals how human populations adapted, survived, and diversified in the Himalayas, one of the most ...

This paper uses computer simulations to determine how gene flow between populations affects (1) the genetic architecture of a local adaptation and (2) properties of alleles segregating in ...

New research reveals that gene flow from Neanderthals has left a lasting imprint on modern human genomes. Non-African populations today inherit approximately 1% to 2% of their genetic material from ...

Gene flow and selection balance has been demonstrated for the fire ant Solenopsis ... Whitlock, M. C. and McCauley, D. E. (1999). Indirect measures of gene flow and migration: Fst ≠ 1/(4Nm ...

Tracking gene flow in marine plant evolution Date: December 10, 2012 Source: Springer Summary: A new method that could give a deeper insight into evolutionary biology.

One of the most intriguing findings is more insight into migration patterns and gene flow during the Viking age. “Although still evident in modern Scandinavians, ...

Using these samples, collected from the 1980s to 2008, scientists were able to trace the polar bears’ gene flow—the geographic movement of genetic markers across several generations. The DNA told a ...

They assessed sharing of segments, inferred gene flow, ... For example, this suggests that the major migration out of Africa occurred no later than 43,500 years ago.

The findings provided insight into migration patterns and gene flow during the Viking age, when Norsemen journeyed from Scandinavia aboard timber longships, staged raids and monastic plundering ...

Long-distance seasonal migration to the tropics promotes genetic diversity but not gene flow in boreal birds. Nature Ecology & Evolution , 2025; DOI: 10.1038/s41559-025-02699-3 Cite This Page : ...

By observing the length of the Neandertal DNA segments, which is related to the number of generations since the gene flow, the researchers inferred that the gene flow began about 50,000 years ago and ...
