The paper identifies a Denisovan-like MUC19 haplotype in Indigenous Americans and Neanderthals, showing it is under positive selection and has high copy numbers of a tandem repeat.

Ancient Mongolian aurochs genomes show sustained male introgression and a link to Hereford cattle, but no genetic signature in modern East Asian breeds.

This study examines how recent admixture in the Americas affects the distribution of archaic ancestry, finding a positive correlation between non-African ancestry and archaic alleles.

This study examines the distribution of archaic genetic variation in Eurasian populations, finding distinct patterns of archaic ancestry and suggesting complex interactions between modern humans and archaic populations.
