The genetic divergence time between two species varies substantially across the genome,
conveying important information about the timing and process of speciation. Here we …

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 divergence of chimpanzee and bonobo provides one of the few examples of recent
hominid speciation,. Here we describe a fully annotated, high-quality bonobo genome …

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 discovery of the basis of genetic variation has opened inroads to understanding our
history as a species. It has revealed the remarkable genetic similarity we share with other …

Despite broad agreement that Homo sapiens originated in Africa, considerable uncertainty
surrounds specific models of divergence and migration across the continent. Progress is …

New finds in the palaeoanthropological and genomic records have changed our view of the
origins of modern human ancestry. Here we review our current understanding of how the …

The origin and patterns of dispersal of anatomically modern humans are the focus of
considerable debate,,. Global genetic analyses have argued for one single origin, placed …

THE debate over human origins has focused on two competing theories. The single African
origin model holds that anatomically modern Homo sapiens evolved in Africa 100,000 …

Advances in the sequencing and the analysis of the genomes of both modern and ancient
peoples have facilitated a number of breakthroughs in our understanding of human …
