  • Analysis of co-ancestry links in modern and ancient human populations
    Ferrando-Bernal, Manuel, 1990- (2021-09-27)
    The aim of this thesis is to apply Identity by Descent (IBD) methodology to identify ancestry connections among individuals from genetically similar populations. Recombination events diminish the likelihood to detect IBDs. ...
  • Differential DNA methylation of vocal and facial anatomy genes in modern humans
    Gokhman, David; García Pérez, Raquel, 1989-; Lizano González, Esther, 1974-; Ferrando-Bernal, Manuel, 1990-; Gelabert Xirinachs, Pere, 1991-; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965-; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Carmel, Liran (Nature Research, 2020)
    Changes in potential regulatory elements are thought to be key drivers of phenotypic divergence. However, identifying changes to regulatory elements that underlie human-specific traits has proven very challenging. Here, ...
  • Evolutionary history, genomic adaptation to toxic diet, and extinction of the Carolina Parakeet
    Gelabert Xirinachs, Pere, 1991-; Serres Armero, Aitor, 1992-; de Manuel, Marc; Renom, Pere; de Dios, Toni; Ferrando-Bernal, Manuel, 1990-; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965- (Elsevier, 2020)
    As the only endemic neotropical parrot to have recently lived in the northern hemisphere, the Carolina parakeet (Conuropsis carolinensis) was an iconic North American bird. The last surviving specimen died in the Cincinnati ...
  • Genome-wide data from the Bubi of Bioko Island clarifies the Atlantic fringe of the Bantu dispersal
    Gelabert Xirinachs, Pere, 1991-; Ferrando-Bernal, Manuel, 1990-; de Dios, Toni; Mattorre, Benedetta; Campoy, Elena; Gorostiza, Amaya; Patin, Etienne; González Martín, Antonio; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965- (BioMed Central, 2019)
    Background: Bioko is one of the few islands that exist around Africa, the most genetically diverse continent on the planet. The native Bantu-speaking inhabitants of Bioko, the Bubi, are believed to have colonized the island ...
  • Look-alike humans identified by facial recognition algorithms show genetic similarities
    Joshi, Ricky S.; Rigau, Maria; García-Prieto, Carlos A.; Castro de Moura, Manuel; Piñeyro, David; Moran, Sebastian; Davalos, Veronica; Carrión, Pablo; Ferrando-Bernal, Manuel, 1990-; Olalde Marquínez, Íñigo, 1987-; Lalueza Fox, Carles, 1965-; Navarro i Cuartiellas, Arcadi, 1969-; Fernández-Tena, Carles; Aspandi, Decky; Sukno, Federico Mateo; Binefa i Valls, Xavier; Valencia, Alfonso; Esteller, Manel (Elsevier, 2022)
    The human face is one of the most visible features of our unique identity as individuals. Interestingly, monozygotic twins share almost identical facial traits and the same DNA sequence but could exhibit differences in ...
