Post Iron Age Introduction of Y-DNA R1a R-Z94 and East Asian Ancestry into Kurdistan, North Iran, and Turkey with the Parthians and Scythians

Abstract The recent publication of numerous DNA sequences from ancient humans spanning the Neolithic to the Iron-Age and Medieval time frames from the Anatolia, Caucasus, and Iran regions has greatly furthered our understanding of the formation of modern ethnic groups such as Armenians, Kurds, Persians, and Turks, which we define as our study populations. Our …

Diploid Genotyping Low to Medium Coverage Ancient DNA – Part 1

OVERVIEW The overwhelming majority of published ancient DNA (aDNA) are pseudo-haploid genomes. This study focuses on the suitability and accuracy of these pseudo-haplodized aDNA genomes for various types of downstream analysis, such as those involving admixture allele frequency studies, as well as Identity-by-Decent (IBD) analyses and analyses using formal methods. The accuracy of pseudo-haploid aDNA …
