We conclude that the Viking diaspora was characterized by substantial transregional engagement: distinct populations influenced the genomic makeup of different regions of Europe, and Scandinavia experienced increased contact with the rest of the continent.

migration from the British Isles and the Transatlantic slave trade; however it is also difficult to assert the ethnic-makeup of the population in these years as accurate migration records were not kept until after the 1820s, at which point the importation of slaves had also been illegalized. ...
The makeup of the genetic basis of a trait, in particular whether there are few or many causal loci, whether the causal variants are rare or common or have small or large effect sizes and the degree to which dominance plays a part. Haplotype A set of alleles on a chromosome or chromosom...
middle class families still have twice the chance of being accepted into a medical degree course than their working class peers.Figures from the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS) cited in the report indicate that the socioeconomic makeup of UK medical schools is stuck in a time...
population grow by more than 50%. The country’s demographic makeup shifted so rapidly that by 1960, there were64.2 millionAmericans under age 18, out of 180 million overall — a whopping 36% of the population. For context, in 2022, an estimated22.4%of the U.S. population was under 18...
The following graphic charts how these changes affect the makeup of the world’s population. Over time, the shape of the world population pyramid is expected to shift from Stage 1 (high birth rates, high death rates) to something closer to Stage 4 (low birth rates, low death rates). ...
Footnote 2 Miguel (2004) documents the implementation of nation building reforms in the newly independent East African nations in the 1960s and 1970s. He focuses on the economic development of two countries: Tanzania and Kenya. Despite their similar colonial institutional legacy, ethnic makeup, ...
Similarly, 90–99% of the population die upon exposure to an antibacterial compound, while the remaining 1–10% of bacterial cells remain unaltered due to the system’s robustness.10 In essence, a collection of cells in a group with the same genetic makeup (isogenic) has a different ...
identified based on their positive impact on nodulation and dry biomass. This study provides crucial insights into the diversity, genetic makeup, and symbiotic efficiency of chickpea rhizobia in the IGP, supporting the potential use of indigenous rhizobia for sustainable chickpea productivity in the ...
