The effects of relatedness and population structure on patterns of genomic sharing
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- In this dissertation, I use several approaches to study patterns of genomic sharing. Chapters 2 and 3 take a theoretical approach, modeling the effect of consanguinity on patterns of genomic sharing. In Chapter 4, I describe a new method to detect IBD segments between closely related individuals. Lastly, in Chapter 5, I take a data-driven approach, analyzing levels of genomic segment sharing as well as genotype sharing to understand the genetic relationship between ancient and modern Indigenous individuals in North America.
