Gut microbial composition depends on different dietary habits just as health depends on
microbial metabolism, but the association of microbiota with different diets in human populations …

We present a high-quality genome sequence of a Neanderthal woman from Siberia. We
show that her parents were related at the level of half-siblings and that mating among close …

We present a DNA library preparation method that has allowed us to reconstruct a high-coverage
(30×) genome sequence of a Denisovan, an extinct relative of Neandertals. The quality …

We sequenced the genomes of a ∼7,000-year-old farmer from Germany and eight ∼8,000-year-old
hunter-gatherers from Luxembourg and Sweden. We analysed these and other …

Most human polymorphisms are neutral or slightly deleterious, but some genetic variation is
advantageous and maintained in populations by balancing selection. Considered a rarity …

We present the high-quality genome sequence of a ∼45,000-year-old modern human male
from Siberia. This individual derives from a population that lived before—or simultaneously …

Background Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are neurodevelopmental conditions
characterized by social and behavioural impairments. In addition to neurological symptoms, ASD …

… In a recent study (de Filippo et al., 2011), we find a similar correlation between linguistic
affiliation to the four major phyla and Y-chromosomal distances; however, the effects of …

The core microbiome, which refers to a set of consistent microbial features across populations,
is of major interest in microbiome research and has been addressed by numerous studies…

To date, the only Neandertal genome that has been sequenced to high quality is from an
individual found in Southern Siberia. We sequenced the genome of a female Neandertal from ~…
