The complete genome sequence of a Neanderthal from the Altai Mountains

…, G Renaud, PH Sudmant, C De Filippo, H Li, S Mallick… - Nature, 2014 - nature.com
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Genetic history of an archaic hominin group from Denisova Cave in Siberia

…, JM Good, T Marques-Bonet, C Alkan, Q Fu, S Mallick… - Nature, 2010 - nature.com
Using DNA extracted from a finger bone found in Denisova Cave in southern Siberia, we have
sequenced the genome of an archaic hominin to about 1.9-fold coverage. This individual …

Massive migration from the steppe was a source for Indo-European languages in Europe

W Haak, I Lazaridis, N Patterson, N Rohland, S Mallick… - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
We generated genome-wide data from 69 Europeans who lived between 8,000–3,000 years
ago by enriching ancient DNA libraries for a target set of almost 400,000 polymorphisms. …

A high-coverage genome sequence from an archaic Denisovan individual

…, M Kircher, MT Gansauge, H Li, F Racimo, S Mallick… - Science, 2012 - science.org
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 …

Ancient human genomes suggest three ancestral populations for present-day Europeans

I Lazaridis, N Patterson, A Mittnik, G Renaud, S Mallick… - Nature, 2014 - nature.com
We sequenced the genomes of a ∼7,000-year-old farmer from Germany and eight ∼8,000-year-old

Genome-wide patterns of selection in 230 ancient Eurasians

I Mathieson, I Lazaridis, N Rohland, S Mallick… - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
Ancient DNA makes it possible to observe natural selection directly by analysing samples
