[HTML][HTML] Sequencing an Ashkenazi reference panel supports population-targeted personal genomics and illuminates Jewish and European origins
The Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) population is a genetic isolate close to European and Middle
Eastern groups, with genetic diversity patterns conducive to disease mapping. Here we report …
