**Medieval genomes from eastern Iberia illuminate the role of Morisco mass deportations in dismantling a long-standing genetic bridge with North Africa**
“_For the first time, we also demonstrate the persistence of North African ancestry in a Christian cemetery until the seventeenth century, in addition to evidence of slave trafficking from North Africa._”

Our recent article on non-visual opsins in lizards - which made the May cover - is the focus of a new Highlight.
"Highlight: More Than Meets the Eye—Nonvisual Opsins Are Crucial for Light-Sensing in Vertebrates"
🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evaf075
The tuatara and many lizards possess a parietal eye, where non-visual opsins are expressed. Romero & @fsjsouza.bsky.social compared 60+ genomes to study the evolution of non-visual opsins, suggesting a functional role associated with the parietal eye.

"After more than two decades of work, researchers have achieved a genetics milestone: they have successfully sequenced the complete genomes of six ape species, a feat that seemed impossible just a few years ago."

🔴 **Ancient genomes reveal trans-Eurasian connections between the European Huns and the Xiongnu Empire**

The research, published in #Science shows that as long as essential #genes remain intact, our #genomes can tolerate significant structural changes, including large deletions of the genetic code. The work opens the door to studying and predicting the role of structural variation in disease. https://phys.org/news/2025-01-complex-human-cell-lines-reveals.html
🔴 **Inference of human pigmentation from ancient DNA by genotype likelihood**
_“We then applied that protocol to 348 ancient genomes from Eurasia, describing how skin, eye and hair color evolved over the past 45,000 years. The shift towards lighter pigmentations turned out to be all but linear in time and place, and slower than expected, with half of the individuals showing dark or intermediate skin colors well into the Copper and Iron ages.”_
