450 ancient Asian genomes trace the most recent common ancestor of the Qiang to ancient Yellow River farmers ~5300 years ago, indicating shared ancestry with other Chinese populations.

Genetic structure and affinities of the SHJ individuals

(A) Principal component analysis (PCA) showing the genetic variation of SHJ individuals projected onto present-day Eurasian populations;

(B) Outgroup f3-statistics showing that SHJM42-1 shares the most genetic drift with Steppe-related groups;

(C) f4-statistics (f4 (Mbuti, X; SHJ-g1, SHJ-g2)) indicate that SHJ-g1 individuals share more ancestry with East Asian populations than SHJ-g2.Image

Western Hunter-Gatherer genetic (WHG) ancestry contributes to human longevity in the Italian population

Abstract Image
Using the four ancient ancestral groups as parental components to directly estimate and compare the ancestry proportions of the 333 centenarians and 690 controls, resulting in the following mean values for CENT (WHG = 0.022, Iran_N = 0.019, Turkey_N = 0.63, Yamnaya_EBA = 0.32) and ITA (WHG = 0.017, Iran_N = 0.022, Turkey_N = 0.63, and Yamnaya_EBA = 0.33Image

Ancient genomes give insight into 160,000 years of East Asian population dynamics and biological adaptation.

How ancestral lineages and agricultural innovations shaped East Asian populations, while migrations and admixture events linked to shifting subsistence strategies contributed to genomic and phenotypic diversity.

Adaptive signatures from ancient genomes further elucidate the underpinnings of high-altitude adaptation, pigmentation, and morphological traits, offering new insights into human evolutionary biology.

Graphical abstract Image
Human evolutionary process and potential migrations in East Asia. Symbols of different colors and shapes are used to represent individuals with distinct archeological backgrounds and genetic connections.

The colored outlines delineate various regions: yellow for the TSM, purple for the ARB and WLRB, light yellow for the YRB, dark blue for the YZRB, and light blue for the TP and TYC.

The individual labels were consistent with the shapes and colors used in Fig. 2. The arrows indicate directions of past population spread or diffusion, with arrow colors corresponding to specific regions.Image
