Image by Daron Herbert According to the researchers, modern horse populations have extremely low genetic diversity on the male Y chromosome, mainly due to the strategies of breeders. Scientists cautioned in a just-published review that examines the diversity of the horse’s Y chromosome. Irene Cardinali and her fellow researchers, writing in the journal Genoastated that …

Something Happened to Ashkenazi Jews in Medieval Europe to Eliminate Genetic Diversity, Study Finds

Leave a Comment / Genetics / By admin

About two-thirds of Jews today – or about 10 million people – are Ashkenazim, referring to a recent Central and Eastern European origin. They primarily reside in the United States and Israel. Ashkenazi Jews carry a particularly high burden of disease-causing genetic mutations, such as those in the BRCA1 gene associated with an increased risk …

Greater genetic diversity is needed in human pluripotent stem cell models – Nature Communications

Leave a Comment / Genetics / By admin

Although the need for more diverse hPSC resources is clear, significant challenges remain in expanding cell collections and implementing these resources in the laboratory. First, it is critical to recognize that current efforts toward greater inclusion exist within a historical context of discrimination, where actions as well as inactions have eroded trust in scientific and …
