Understanding genetic adaptation of Asian populations to their environment

Positive selection drives the spread of advantageous mutations in populations, contributing to phenotypic diversity across species. While many studies uncovered examples of human local adaptation, they mostly focused on Western European and Eastern Asian populations. This has left little knowledge...

This has left little knowledge about human genetic adaptation in other areas of Asia, such as Northern, Central and South-East Asia. Yet, there is an important cultural and geographical variability across these populations, and ...
