Most people with non-African ancestry carry roughly 1–4% Neanderthal ancestry spread across their genomes, a legacy of contact after modern humans expanded into Eurasia. But the X chromosome, one of ...
Researchers found that Neanderthals carried excess modern human DNA on their X chromosomes, pointing to predominantly male ...
