Indo-European and Asian origins for Chilean and Pacific chickens revealed by mtDNA by Gongora, J., Rawlence, N.J., Mobegi, V.A., Alcalde, J.A., Matus, J.T., Hanotte, Olivier H., Moran, C., Austin, J.J., Ulm, S., Anderson, A.J., Larson, G., Cooper, G., Han Jianlin

“…Modeling of the potential marine carbon contribution to the Chilean archaeological specimen casts further doubt on claims for pre-Columbian chickens, and definitive proof will require further analyses of ancient DNA sequences and radiocarbon and stable isotope data from archaeological excavations within both Chile and Polynesia.…”

Resolving the evolution of extant and extinct ruminants with high-throughput phylogenomics by Decker, J., Pires, J.C., Conant, G.C., McKay, S.D., Heaton, M.P., Chen, K., Cooper, A., Vilkki, J., Seabury, C.M., Caetano, A.R., Johnson, G.S., Brenneman, R.A., Hanotte, Olivier H.

“…Here we demonstrate that a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping platform designed for one species can be used to genotype ancient DNA from an extinct species and DNA from species diverged up to 29 million years ago and that the produced genotypes can be used to resolve the phylogeny for this rapidly radiated infraorder. …”

Machine learning reveals spatiotemporal genome evolution in Asian rice domestication by Ohyanagi, Hajime, Goto, Kosuke, Negrão, Sónia, Wing, Rod A., Tester, Mark A., McNally, Kenneth L., Bajic, Vladimir B., Mineta, Katsuhiko, Gojobori, Takashi

“…The IR map revealed that 14.2% of the rice genome consists of IRs, including both wide IRs (recent) and narrow IRs (ancient). This introgressive landscape with their time calibration indicates that introgression events happened in multiple genomic regions over multiple periods. …”

Discontinuities in quinoa biodiversity in the dry Andes: An 18 - century perspective based on allelic genotyping by Winkel, Thierry, Aguirre, María Gabriela, Arizio, Carla Marcela, Aschero, Carlos A., Babot, María del Pilar, Benoit, Laure, Burgarella, Concentta, Costa Tártara, Sabrina María, Dubois, Marie - Pierre, Gay, Laurene, Hocsman, Salomon, Margaux, Jullien, López-Campery, Sara María, Manifesto, Maria Marcela, Navascues, Miguel, Oliszewski, Nurit, Pintar, Elizabeth, Zenboudji, Saliha, Bertero, Héctor Daniel, Joffre, Richard

“…Cluster analyses revealed clear population patterns separating modern and ancient quinoas. Coalescence-based analyses revealed that genetic drift within a single population cannot explain genetic differentiation among ancient and modern quinoas. …”
