Article Synopsis
- Human genomics is shifting from a single reference sequence to a more inclusive pangenome, but populations of Asian ancestry remain underrepresented.
- The Chinese Pangenome Consortium has released data from 116 high-quality genome assemblies based on 58 samples from various minority ethnic groups in China, significantly enhancing existing genomic references.
- Their findings reveal millions of novel genetic variants, particularly in underrepresented populations, highlighting the potential for discoveries related to human evolution and disease genetics.
