To assess the effect of gene flow on population differentiation in SSA, we masked Eurasian ancestry across the genome (Supplementary Methods and Supplementary Note 6). This markedly reduced population differentiation, as measured by a decline in mean pairwise FST from 0.021 to 0.015 (Supplementary Note 6), suggests that Eurasian ancestry has a substantial impact on differentiation among SSA populations. We speculate that residual differentiation between Ethiopian and other SSA populations after masking Eurasian ancestry (pairwise FST = 0.027) may be a remnant of East African diversity pre-dating the Bantu expansion10.


Basically, ever African population shows signs of influxes into Europe. Where's your out of africa now?

Many MENA blacks have Asiatic epicanthic fold indicating eurasian influx… but I haven't seen many pictures of sub-saharan afrikans to compare.

By comparison blacks in the US do not, mostly due to european admixture.

They have a lot of Basal Eurasian, which is what Arabians/Bedouins are not European/Eurasian dude hence the difference.

I have seen some australoid influence as well.
