També vull agraïr a l’Elena i al Francesc per fer ells principalment l’esforç de traduir l’article al català🌹. Vam pensar que si volíem fer un retorn a la societat de la nostra investigació, era molt adequat fer-ho en la llengua del lloc on són les dades. Podeu llegir-lo aquí:

Figure showing the LAD regions over MHC and the score for the selection scan statistic over the region

We find an overlap of signatures of selection and genomic regions showing local ancestry deviation, which may indicate selection events facilitated by admixture. For example, the selection signals in the LCT locus and the MHC region both showed Steppe ancestry enrichment. 🏇

With the information of local ancestry, we inferred regions with an excess of any main ancestral components that shaped European populations: West Hunter Gatherers, Early European farmers, and Steppe ancestry. 👣

Using 704 whole genome sequences, we discovered novel candidates for positive selection putatively associated with immunity (UBL7, SMYD1, VAC14) and diet (FDFT1)🥩. Interestingly, SMYD1 is related to the presence of antigen AnWj, a receptor of Haemophilus influenzae.🦠

We aimed to detect specific signals of adaptation in the Spanish population and infer which role past admixtures, such as the Neolithic Revolution, play in this process.🧑‍🌾

Great work by Julen Aizpurua, with the help of David Comas. It wouldn't have been possible without locals Elisa María and Maria Barber, who collected the samples and provided context. Big thanks to all of you! (2/2)

A reduction in effective population size has not relaxed purifying selection in the human population of Eivissa (Balearic Islands) Scientific Reports - A reduction in effective population size has not relaxed purifying selection in the human population of Eivissa (Balearic Islands)

This just out! rdcu.be/d5ptO. We compared SNP arrays and exomes in Eivissans and Minorcans, found that drift was way more intense in the former than in the latter, although, fortunately, Eivissans did not accumulate more deleterious mutations (1/2)
