Autosomal and uniparental portraits of the native populations of Sakha (Yakutia): implications for the peopling of Northeast Eurasia. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Sakha is crucial for understanding the history of human migration in Northeast Eurasia and the Americas, showing genetic ties between Siberia and East Asia.
  • A comprehensive analysis of genetic data from Sakha's native populations reveals genetic connections to South Siberia and highlights specific mtDNA and Y-chromosome haplogroups linked to ancient migrations and the region's native ancestry.
  • While recent admixture with East Europeans contributes to the gene pool, much of the genetic diversity in Sakha likely stems from ancient migrations, indicating a complex history of population interactions.

Article Abstract

Background: Sakha--an area connecting South and Northeast Siberia--is significant for understanding the history of peopling of Northeast Eurasia and the Americas. Previous studies have shown a genetic contiguity between Siberia and East Asia and the key role of South Siberia in the colonization of Siberia.

Results: We report the results of a high-resolution phylogenetic analysis of 701 mtDNAs and 318 Y chromosomes from five native populations of Sakha (Yakuts, Evenks, Evens, Yukaghirs and Dolgans) and of the analysis of more than 500,000 autosomal SNPs of 758 individuals from 55 populations, including 40 previously unpublished samples from Siberia. Phylogenetically terminal clades of East Asian mtDNA haplogroups C and D and Y-chromosome haplogroups N1c, N1b and C3, constituting the core of the gene pool of the native populations from Sakha, connect Sakha and South Siberia. Analysis of autosomal SNP data confirms the genetic continuity between Sakha and South Siberia. Maternal lineages D5a2a2, C4a1c, C4a2, C5b1b and the Yakut-specific STR sub-clade of Y-chromosome haplogroup N1c can be linked to a migration of Yakut ancestors, while the paternal lineage C3c was most likely carried to Sakha by the expansion of the Tungusic people. MtDNA haplogroups Z1a1b and Z1a3, present in Yukaghirs, Evens and Dolgans, show traces of different and probably more ancient migration(s). Analysis of both haploid loci and autosomal SNP data revealed only minor genetic components shared between Sakha and the extreme Northeast Siberia. Although the major part of West Eurasian maternal and paternal lineages in Sakha could originate from recent admixture with East Europeans, mtDNA haplogroups H8, H20a and HV1a1a, as well as Y-chromosome haplogroup J, more probably reflect an ancient gene flow from West Eurasia through Central Asia and South Siberia.

Conclusions: Our high-resolution phylogenetic dissection of mtDNA and Y-chromosome haplogroups as well as analysis of autosomal SNP data suggests that Sakha was colonized by repeated expansions from South Siberia with minor gene flow from the Lower Amur/Southern Okhotsk region and/or Kamchatka. The minor West Eurasian component in Sakha attests to both recent and ongoing admixture with East Europeans and an ancient gene flow from West Eurasia.

Article Synopsis
  • Sibling species within bloodsucking black flies complicate the assessment of biodiversity and the species' roles in spreading pathogens, prompting research on molecular genetic structures of Simulium reptans in Russia and Northern Kazakhstan.
  • Genetic analysis revealed distinct mitochondrial DNA variants, identifying two forms: S. reptans A in Northern Europe and S. reptans B in Siberia and Northern Kazakhstan, along with three branches of S. reptans B based on geographic distribution.
  • The study suggests the need for further research in mountainous regions of Eurasia to better understand the ecological adaptations and distribution of these black fly forms.

The upper tropospheric-lower stratospheric ozone drives summer precipitation and wildfire changes in West Siberia.

Siberian wildfires are pivotal in determining the carbon cycle and climate dynamics, exerting a profound impact on the ecosystems of the entire Arctic region. Over the past few decades, variations in summer precipitation in West Siberia have significantly influenced wildfire activity. This study analyzed precipitation trends in West Siberia from 1982 to 2021 using observations and transient simulations, uncovering a strong correlation between precipitation variability and ozone concentrations in the upper troposphere-lower stratosphere (UTLS).

The review presents current data on the chiropterofauna inhabiting Western Siberia and the south of the European part of Russia. A general description of the genus of lyssaviruses and the family of coronaviruses is given. The potential for virus carriage in relation to lyssaviruses and coronaviruses in bat populations of two geographically distant regions is considered.

Hyperboreomyzon polaris Bolotov, Eliseeva, Klass & Kondakov, 2022 (Hirudinea: Glossiphoniidae) is an enigmatic freshwater leech that was recently described based on three specimens from two remote regions of the Eurasian Arctic, that is, the Kolguev Island and Putorana Plateau, Russia. Later on, misidentified historical samples of this species were discovered in the Hirudinea collection of Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (St. Petersburg, Russia).
