Tracing the evolution and diversity of human parvovirus B19 across human history

The emergence, evolution, and dispersal of human parvovirus B19V remain underexplored. Zeibig et al. demonstrate that B19V dispersed globally, participated in epidemics, and added to the disease burden of diverse populations, including children, as far back as the Late Mesolithic. These findings provide insight into this ubiquitous virus's evolutionary past.

Abstract Indigenous peoples of America represent the last principal expansion of humans across the globe1, yet their genetic history remains one of the least explored2. Although these populations have inhabited the continent for thousands of years3, their evolutionary history remains largely unresolved4,5, owing to the limited availability of genomic data.

Tracing social mechanisms and interregional connections in Early Bronze Age Societies in Lower Austria - Nature Communications

By Katharina Rebay-Salisbury, Gunnar U. Neumann, Fabian Kanz, Harald Ringbauer, Raffaela Angelina Bianco, Rodrigo Barquera, Kim Callan, Olivia Cheronet, Anna Wagner, Maria Teschler-Nicola, Ron Pinhasi, David Reich, Johannes Krause, Domnika Verdianu

Abstract In this study, we present the results of archaeogenetic investigations of Early Bronze Age individuals from Lower Austria, specifically associated with the Únětice and Unterwölbling cultural groups. Through analysing newly generated genome-wide data of 129 individuals, we explore the social structure and genetic relationships within and between these communities. Our results reveal a predominantly patrilocal society with non-strict female exogamic practices.
