Complete genome sequences from more than one hundred diverse human populations

All genomes in the dataset were sequenced to at least 30x coverage using Illumina technology. The sequencing reads were mapped and genotyped using a customized procedure that was optimized for population genetic analysis. The researchers eliminated bias of alleles toward matching the human genome reference sequence, and determined genotypes on a single-sample basis to avoid preferential calling of genotypes from populations that had more individuals represented.
