Genotyping of 327 individuals from 14 populations across the Sahel/Savannah belt that were genotyped on the Illumina H3Africa Consortium Array.

ABSTRACT: The Sahel/Savannah belt harbours diverse populations with different demographic histories and different subsistence patterns. However, populations from this large African region are notably under-represented in genomic research. To investigate the population structure and adaptation history of populations from the Sahel/Savannah space, we generated dense genome-wide genotype data of 327 individuals—comprising 14 ethnolinguistic groups, including ten previously unsampled populations. DNA samples were genotyped on the Illumina H3Africa Consortium Array (BeadChip type: H3Africa_2017_20021485_A2; designed for SNP-genotyping of 2,267,346 SNPs) at the SNP&SEQ Technology Platform, NGI/SciLifeLab Genomics (Sweden).
