Ancient genomes illuminate Eastern Arabian population history

Summary
The harsh climate of Arabia has posed challenges in generating ancient DNA from the region, hindering the direct examination of ancient genomes for understanding the demographic processes that shaped Arabian populations. In this study, we report whole-genome sequence data obtained from four Tylos-period individuals from Bahrain. Their genetic ancestry can be modeled as a mixture of sources from ancient Anatolia, Levant, and Iran/Caucasus, with variation between individuals suggesting population heterogeneity in Bahrain before the onset of Islam. We identify the G6PD Mediterranean mutation associated with malaria resistance in three out of four ancient Bahraini samples and estimate that it rose in frequency in Eastern Arabia from 5 to 6 kya onward, around the time agriculture appeared in the region. Our study characterizes the genetic composition of ancient Arabians, shedding light on the population history of Bahrain and demonstrating the feasibility of studies of ancient DNA in the region.

Data and code availability

Raw and processed sequence reads are made available at the European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) accessions ENA: PRJEB31781 and ENA: PRJEB71330, respectively.


Pseudo-haploid genotypes for the newly reported ancient individuals and imputed variants are made available at Zenodo:

https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10058388.


All code used for analysis has been previously published and is publicly available.

However we have an issue here:

The SNP mapping was not done properly. Instead of using the rs_names  here we see the positions numbers. So if you try to use this data with the regular processing software it will not find any snips.
We need someone to convert the map file to use the accepted snp names.

They can not do G25 if bim file is not converted properly..
(I guess that's why Davidski said this data is garbage. "Garbage sequences.")

So they used a different format: GRCh38 /GRCh38.bim/
Reich datasets are using hg19 . (NCBI build 37 (UCSC hg19).)
To convert the data they use this terminology:
LiftOver - LiftOver is a necesary step to bring all genetical analysis to the same reference build.

Something is wrong with these samples even after conversion to hg19 / build 37.

Were you able to convert them ? Please share your data.

BTW, for those of you interested in genomic data from Bahrain, there is some old data here:

Quote:https://www.biologiaevolutiva.org/dcomas...submitted/
North African Affy 6.0 data (Henn et al., 2012)

Genomic Ancestry of North Africans Supports Back-to-Africa Migrations
Brenna M. Henn, Laura R. Botigué, Simon Gravel, Wei Wang, Abra Brisbin, Jake K. Byrnes, Karima
Fadhlaoui-Zid, Pierre A. Zalloua, Andres Moreno-Estrada, Jaume Bertranpetit, Carlos D.
Bustamante, David Comas (2012) PLoS Genetics 8(1)e1002397 Henn2012

The Affy 6.0 data can be downloaded here: NAfrica_Bas and NWAfrica_Qat_280K

The quality if this data is low, but it is not so bad, and there are hundreds of individuals included. Please take a look.

I think that paper has data from Qatar, but not from Bahrain?

Yes, mostly Qatar, but there are many others as well. There are more than 800 in total.

The quality of this data is bad, really bad. I am not sure if the conversion was not successful or the data itself . For the moment it is not usable with my tools. Will wait for better data.

Which of these samples are from Bahrain?
