“…Twelve gains and 40 losses specific to the Barbary macaque contain genes with essential roles in energy homeostasis and immunity defense, inferring the genetic basis of its unique distribution in North Africa. Our study not only elucidated the genetic diversity across Macaca species from the perspective of structural variation but also provided suggestive evidence for the role of CNVs in adaptation and genome evolution. …”

“…The Arabs from Kairouan revealed 73.47% of E-M81 and close affinities with Berber groups, indicating they are likely arabized Berbers, clearly differentiated from the Arabs from Wesletia, who harbored the highest frequency (71.8%) of the Middle Eastern component ever observed in North Africa. In the Tunisian Andalusians, the North African component largely prevailed, followed by the Middle Eastern contribution. …”
