Phylogeny of the primates

Fossil record of primates

Recent human ancestry indicated by microcomplement fixation

Regulatory basis for human-chimp differences

Mary-ClaireKing

Classes of interspersed repeats in the human genome

Phylogenetic analysis using retroelements

Retroposon evidence on mammal phylogeny

Retroelements and rodent phylogeny

Hominid slowdown

Relative rate tests in primates

“Lucky Mother” conceptfor mtDNA

Low genetic diversity in humans

Low diversity in humans

Small Fst among human populations

Diagnosibility of human populations

Highly precise geographic assignment of Europeans

Models of human evolution

Predictions for coalescence time

Observed coalescence times for human genes

Deep coalescence in human genes

Deep coalescence of X-chromosome pseudogene

X chromosome pseudogene

Neanderthal mtDNA sequence
