As noted in the University, about 50 thousand years ago the ancestors of modern humans migrated from Africa and began to interbreed with Neanderthals and denisovans.
Scientists from Cornell University have discovered in the genome of modern human DNA from an unknown ancestor.
As noted in the University, about 50 thousand years ago the ancestors of modern humans migrated from Africa and began to interbreed with Neanderthals and denisovans.
American scientists have created a system “deciphering” of the human DNA for fragments of other types. And these fragments were found. According to researchers, a few percent readarticle introduced into the genome of modern humans the DNA was transferred from the unknown species more than two hundred thousand years ago. One percent of the genes of the denisovans also has similar roots.
Experts have suggested that the role of an unknown ancestor could be Homo erectus, but the evidence of the theory is not yet available, reports the journal PLOS Genetics.
