Indigenous American Diversity and Evolution

The Indigenous American Genomic Diversity Project (IAGDP) investigates the genomic diversity and evolutionary history of Native American populations, which remain underrepresented in global genomic research. As part of this effort, we generated high-coverage whole-genome sequences individuals sampled across eight Latin American countries. This study provides a resource for investigating population structure, demographic history, and adaptive evolution in Indigenous American populations.

Type: Whole Genome Sequencing
Archiver: European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA)

EGAD50000002396	Here we present the Indigenous American Genomic Diversity Project (IAGDP), comprising 128 newly generated high-coverage (NGS; ~44X) whole genomes from Indigenous individuals across eight Latin American countries, representing 45 populations and 28 language families. This dataset expands Indigenous representation in genomics, with emphasis on geographically and linguistically diverse populations, particularly from the South American lowlands.	BGISEQ-500	128
