      The current genetic makeup of Latin America has been shaped by a history of extensive admixture between Africans, Europeans and Native Americans, a process taking place within the context of extensive geographic and social ...
    • Evolutionary responses to a constructed niche: Ancient mesoamericans as a model of gene-culture coevolution 
      Hünemeier, Tábita; Amorim, Carlos Eduardo Guerra; Azevedo, Soledad; Contini, Veronica; Acuña Alonzo, Víctor; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco; Dugoujon, Jean Michel; Mazières, Stephane; Barrantes, Ramiro; Villarreal-Molina, María Teresa; Paixão-Côrtes, Vanessa Rodrigues; Salza (2012)
      Culture and genetics rely on two distinct but not isolated transmission systems. Cultural processes may change the human selective environment and thereby affect which individuals survive and reproduce. Here, we evaluated ...
    • Facial Asymmetry and Genetic Ancestry in Latin American Admixed Populations 
      Quinto Sánchez, Mirsha; Adhikari, Kaustubh; Acuña Alonzo, Víctor; Cintas, Celia; Silva de Cerqueira, Caio Cesar; Ramallo, Virginia; Castillo, Lucia; Farrera, Arodi; Jaramillo, Claudia; Arias, Williams; Fuentes, Macarena; Everardo, Paola; Ávila, Francisco de; Gómez Valdés, Jorge; Hünemeier, Tabita; Gibbon, Shara; Gallo, Carla; Poletti, Giovanni; Rosique, Javier; Bortolini, María Cátira; Canizales Quinteros, Samuel; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco; Bedoya, Gabriel; Ruiz Linares, Andrés; González José, Rolando (Wuley Blackwell, 2015)
      Fluctuating and directional asymmetry are aspects of morphological variation widely used to infer environmental and genetic factors affecting facial phenotypes. However, the genetic basis and environmental determinants ...
    • Genetic contributors to serum uric acid levels in Mexicans and their effect on premature coronary artery disease 
      Macias-Kauffer, Luis R.; Villamil-Ramírez, Hugo; León-Mimila, Paola; Jacobo-Albavera, Leonor; Posadas-Romero, Carlos; Posadas-Sánchez, Rosalinda; López-Contreras, Blanca E.; Morán-Ramos, Sofía; Romero-Hidalgo, Sandra; Acuña Alonzo, Víctor; del-Río-Navarro, Blanca E (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2018)
      © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Background: Serum uric acid (SUA) is a heritable trait associated with cardiovascular risk factors and coronary artery disease (CAD). Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several genes ...
    • A genome-wide association study identifies multiple loci for variation in human ear morphology 
      Adhikari, Kaustubh; Reales, Guillermo; Smith, Andrew J.P.; Konka, Esra; Palmen, Jutta; Quinto Sánchez, Mirsha; Acuña Alonzo, Víctor; Jaramillo, Claudia; Arias, William; Fuentes, Macarena; Pizarro, María; Barquera Lozano, Rodrigo; Macín Pérez, Gastón; Gómez Valdés, Jorge; Villamil Ramírez, Hugo; Hunemeier, Tábita; Ramallo, Virginia; Silva de Cerqueira, Caio C.; Hurtado, Malena; Villegas, Valeria; Granja, Vanessa; Gallo, Carla; Poletti, Giovanni; Schuler Faccini, Lavinia; Salzano, Francisco M.; Bortolini, Maria Cátira; Canizales Quinteros, Samuel; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco; Bedoya, Gabriel; Calderón, Rosario; Rosique, Javier; Cheeseman, Michael; Bhutta, Mahmood F.; Humphries, Steve E.; González José, Rolando; Headon, Denis; Balding, David; Ruiz Linares, Andrés (Nature Publishing, 2015)
      Here we report a genome-wide association study for non-pathological pinna morphology in over 5,000 Latin Americans. We find genome-wide significant association at seven genomic regions affecting: lobe size and attachment, ...

      Silva de Cerqueira, Caio Cesar; Hünemeier, Tábita; Gómez Valdés, Jorge; Ramallo, Virginia; Volasko Krause, Carla Daiana; Leal Barbosa, Ana Angélica; Vargas Pinilla, Pedro; Ciconet Dornelles, Rodrigo; Longo, Danaé; Rothhammer Engel, Francisco; Bedoya, Gabriel; Canizales Quinteros, Samuel; Acuña Alonzo, Víctor; Gallo, Carla; Poletti, Giovanni; González José, Rolando; Mauro Salzano, Francisco; Callegari-Jacques, Sídia María; Schuler-Faccini, Lavínia; Ruiz Linares, Andrés; Bortolini, María Cátira (PLOS One, 2014)
      The understanding of the complex genotype-phenotype architecture of human pigmentation has clear implications for the evolutionary history of humans, as well as for medical and forensic practices. Although dozens of genes ...
    • The impact of socioeconomic and phenotypic traits on self‑perception of ethnicity in Latin America 
      Paschetta, Carolina; Azevedo, Soledad De; Ramallo, Virginia; Cintas, Celia; Pérez, Orlando; Navarro, Pablo; Bandieri, Lucas; Quinto Sánchez, Mirsha; Adhikari, Kaustubh; Bortolini, M.
