Assessing genetic contributions to phenotypic differences among 'racial' and 'ethnic' groups (2004)

Mountain, Joanna L, Risch, Neil

Descriptions of human genetic variation given thirty years ago have held up well, considering the substantial accrual of DNA sequence data in the interim. Most importantly, estimates of between-group...

Detecting immigration by using multilocus genotypes

Rannala, Bruce, Mountain, Joanna L.

Immigration is an important force shaping the social structure, evolution, and genetics of populations. A statistical method is presented that uses multilocus genotypes to identify individuals who...

SNPSTRs: Empirically Derived, Rapidly Typed, Autosomal Haplotypes for Inference of Population History and Mutational Processes

Mountain, Joanna L., Knight, Alec, Jobin, Matthew, Gignoux, Christopher, Miller, Adam, Lin, Alice A., ...

Each independently evolving segment of the genomes of a sexually reproducing organism has a separate history reflecting part of the evolutionary history of that organism. Uniparentally or clonally...

Serial coalescent simulations suggest a weak genealogical relationship between Etruscans and modern Tuscans

Belle, Elise M. S., Ramakrishnan, Uma, Mountain, Joanna L., Barbujani, Guido

The Etruscans, the only preclassical European population that has been genetically characterized so far, share only two haplotypes with their modern geographic counterparts, the Tuscans, who,...
