  • The genome of the southeast Asian orang-utan has been sequenced. The draft assembly of a Sumatran individual alongside sequence data from five Sumatran and five Bornean orang-utan genomes is presented. The resources and analyses described offer new opportunities in evolutionary genomics, insights into hominid biology, and an extensive database of variation for conservation efforts.

  • Until now, fully sequenced human genomes of the indigenous hunter-gatherer peoples of southern Africa have been limited to recently diverged populations. The complete genome sequences of an indigenous hunter-gatherer from the Kalahari Desert and of a Bantu from southern Africa are now presented. The extent of whole-genome and exome diversity is characterized; the observed genomic differences may help to pinpoint genetic adaptations to an agricultural lifestyle.
