New genetic data has enabled scientists to re-examine the relationship between human
genetic variation and'race'. We review the results of genetic analyses that show that human …

In this review, we focus on the biogeographical distribution of genetic variation and address
whether or not populations cluster according to the popular concept of'race'. We show that …

Our closest living relatives, chimpanzees and bonobos, have a complex demographic
history. We analyzed the high-coverage whole genomes of 75 wild-born chimpanzees and …

Two African apes are the closest living relatives of humans: the chimpanzee (Pan
troglodytes) and the bonobo (Pan paniscus). Although they are similar in many respects …

Here we present a draft genome sequence of the common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes).
Through comparison with the human genome, we have generated a largely complete …

The success of many strategies for finding genetic variants that underlie complex traits
depends on how genetic variation is distributed among human populations. This realization …

The divergence of two subspecies of common chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes troglodytes
and P. t. verus) and the bonobo (P. paniscus) was studied using a recently developed …

The global dispersal of anatomically modern humans over the past 100,000 years has
produced patterns of phenotypic variation that have exerted—and continue to exert …

How populations diverge and give rise to distinct species remains a fundamental question in
evolutionary biology, with important implications for a wide range of fields, from conservation …

Recombination rates seem to vary extensively along the human genome. Pedigree analysis
suggests that rates vary by an order of magnitude when measured at the megabase scale …
