Historically, craniofacial genetic research has understandably focused on identifying the
causes of craniofacial anomalies and it has only been within the last 10 years, that there has …

Objectives This study aims at performing a systematic review and meta‐analysis with the
studies of genetic admixture inference of Brazilian population and to compare these results …

The vast majority of genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are performed in
Europeans, and their transferability to other populations is dependent on many factors (eg …

Abstract Knowledge of genome-wide genealogies for thousands of individuals would
simplify most evolutionary analyses for humans and other species, but has remained …

INTRODUCTION Variation in pigmentation among human populations may reflect local
adaptation to regional light environments, because dark skin is more photoprotective …

There are nearly 400 modern domestic dog breeds with a unique histories and genetic
profiles. To track the genetic signatures of breed development, we have assembled the most …

South America has a complex demographic history shaped by multiple migration and
admixture events in pre-and post-colonial times. Settled over 14,000 years ago by Native …

While South Americans are underrepresented in human genomic diversity studies, Brazil
has been a classical model for population genetics studies on admixture. We present the …

We report a genome-wide association scan in> 6,000 Latin Americans for pigmentation of
skin and eyes. We found eighteen signals of association at twelve genomic regions. These …

We report a genome-wide association scan for facial features in∼ 6,000 Latin Americans.
We evaluated 14 traits on an ordinal scale and found significant association (P values< 5× …
