Oct 18, 2019 · DOI: 10.1126/science.aax2083. A team of researchers from the U.S., Italy and France has found evidence that suggests DNA inherited from Neanderthals and Denisovans may have helped early Melanesian ...
Feb 29, 2024 · Modern human ancestors diverged from the ancestors of Neandertals and Denisovans about 600,000 years ago. Until about 40,000 years ago, these three groups existed in parallel, occasionally met, and exchanged genes. A critical question is why modern humans, and not the other two groups, survived, became numerous, and developed complex cultures.
Mar 17, 2016 · In aggregate, across all 1523 non-African individuals analyzed, we recovered 1340 Mb and 304 Mb of the Neandertal and Denisovan genomes, respectively, at a FDR = 5%. Melanesian individuals have on average 104 Mb of archaic sequences per individual (48.9, 42.9, and 12.2 Mb of Neandertal, Denisovan, and ambiguous sequence, respectively) ( Fig. 2B ).
