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 af
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...
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.

According to geographical distribution and ethnicity, East Asians can be roughly divided into three major groups: Chinese, Korean and Japanese. Although these three populations share many physical similarities, genomic studies show that the genetic makeup of the these populations differ from each other ...
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...

Based on the different composi- tions of the genetic make-up, the Uyghur population could be divided into two sub-populations, namely, the northeast and southwest. This population struc- ture is associated with longitude instead of latitude, which may result from a joint effect of the barrier...
in recent times to the genetic makeup of crops, the majority of them remain as wild populations10. The most closely related species toT. cacaois putativelyTheobroma grandiflorum17, but the biological characteristics of the trees and the fruits are dramatically different to those found inT. cacao...
An important feature of FinnGen compared with other similar projects, such as the UKBB6, is the specific genetic makeup of the Finnish population. In the GWAS of selected, well-studied diseases, we were able to identify several new associations with a fraction of the cases compared with the...
