We find an overlap of signatures of selection and genomic regions showing local ancestry deviation, which may indicate selection events facilitated by admixture. For example, the selection signals in the LCT locus and the MHC region both showed Steppe ancestry enrichment. 🏇

With the information of local ancestry, we inferred regions with an excess of any main ancestral components that shaped European populations: West Hunter Gatherers, Early European farmers, and Steppe ancestry. 👣

Using 704 whole genome sequences, we discovered novel candidates for positive selection putatively associated with immunity (UBL7, SMYD1, VAC14) and diet (FDFT1)🥩. Interestingly, SMYD1 is related to the presence of antigen AnWj, a receptor of Haemophilus influenzae.🦠

We aimed to detect specific signals of adaptation in the Spanish population and infer which role past admixtures, such as the Neolithic Revolution, play in this process.🧑‍🌾
