Phylogeography of sub-Saharan mitochondrial lineages outside Africa highlights the roles of the holocene climate changes and the atlantic slave trade

Despite the importance of ancient DNA for understanding human prehistoric dispersals, poor survival means that data remain sparse for many areas in the tropics, including in Africa. In such instances, analysis of contemporary genomes remains invaluable. One promising approach is founder analysis, wh...
