Whole-genome sequencing of a census-based elderly cohort of Brazilians

ABSTRACT: This project generated a high-coverage WGS dataset of 1,000+ highly admixed elderly from a census-based cohort from São Paulo, Brazil (SABE Study). Current Brazilian population results from admixture of Iberian Europeans, West and East Africans and Native Americans, and from 19th century onwards other groups from Europe, Asian and Middle East arrived in Brazil. The phase 1 includes BAM files from 1,171 individuals, described in pre-print "Whole-genome sequencing of 1,171 elderly admixed individuals from the largest Latin American metropolis (São Paulo, Brazil)" (DOI: 10.1101/2020.09.15.298026).
