HGDP-CEPH human genome diversity cell line panel

Data from HGDP-related papers published in
[2017] [2013] [2011] [2009] [2008] [2006] [2005] [2002]

The diversity panel is a large and widely-used collection of DNA samples from people distributed around the world. Several of our papers have utilized genotypes from the diversity panel. Here we provide HGDP-CEPH data exactly as used in these papers.

Note that slightly different versions of our microsatellite and indel data sets are located at the website of the Marshfield Clinic Research Foundation. In cases where it is of interest to compare new results on the diversity panel to what has been seen in our previous work, we recommend using the files downloadable from this site, rather than those available in Microsoft Excel from Marshfield.

Further information about the microsatellite markers, such as PCR primers and map positions, are available from Marshfield.

HGDP 2009 sequence properties of microsatellites (627 autosomal microsatellite loci in 1048 individuals, with repeat numbers and sequence properties)

(Posted January 21, 2010) For 627 HGDP microsatellites, these files provide sequence properties, such as the structure of the repeat motif and the GC content of the flanking region. They also convert the PCR fragment lengths in nucleotides to numbers of repeats, by calibration with the human genome reference sequence.

HGDP 2006 relatives

(Posted October 17, 2006) It is recommended that anyone working with the diversity panel read the following paper, which reports a variety of anomalies in the diversity panel individuals and recommends standard subsets for future use.

HGDP 2005 microsatellites and indels (783 autosomal microsatellite loci and 210 insertion/deletion polymorphisms in 1048 individuals from 53 populations)

(Posted November 1, 2005) The following data files, all in plain text format, were reported by two papers appearing nearly simultaneously. The microsatellite markers are drawn from Marshfield screening sets 10, 13, and 52, and the indels are drawn from Marshfield screening set 100. A description of how these data files differ from those on the Marshfield site is in the Ramachandran et al. (2005) and Rosenberg et al. (2005) papers.

In choosing data files for analysis, note that there are slight differences between the data used by Ramachandran et al. (2005) and those used by Rosenberg et al. (2005). Our uses in the lab employ the Rosenberg et al. (2005) version.
