Sever: A Robust Meta-Algorithm for Stochastic Optimization (2018, background): “The ﬁrst is biological data (such as gene expression data), where mislabeling or measurement errors can create systematic outliers [RPW + 02, LAT + 08] that require painstaking manual eﬀort to remove [PLJD10].”
Genetic structure, self-identified race/ethnicity, and confounding in case-control association studies. (2005, positive): “A recent study (Rosenberg et al. 2002) examined 377 autosomal microsatellite markers in 1,056 individuals from a global sample of 52 populations and found significant evidence of genetic clustering, largely along geographic (continental) lines.”
Polygenic Influence on Educational Attainment: New evidence from The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (2015, background): “Siblings thus provide ideal controls for establishing magnitudes of genetic effects on social attainments.”
Counting Alleles with Rarefaction: Private Alleles and Hierarchical Sampling Designs (2004, background): “As noted above, Smith and Grassle (1977) provide formulae for estimating Varðâ20Þ.”
Variants in nicotinic receptors and risk for nicotine dependence. (2008, background): “Genetic structure analysis on these human populations identified six main genetic clusters, five of which correspond to major geographic regions, and subclusters that often correspond to individual populations (24).”

Phylogeny, phylogeography and genetic diversity of the Pisum genus (2010, background): “Nevertheless, the utility and complementarity of these approaches have been shown (Rosenberg, 2002; Corander et al., 2003, 2004; Smýkal et al., 2008a).”
Inferring weak population structure with the assistance of sample group information (2009, methodology): “FST among populations from different continents is about 7% in this data set (Rosenberg et al. 2002).”
Linkage disequilibrium, genetic association mapping and gene localization in crop plants (2008, methodology): “The methods have been applied to association analyses in humans (Rosenberg et al., 2002; Cardon and Bell, 2001) and crop plants, with modified test statistics being used to deal with quantitative traits (Thornsberry et al.”
Database mining for selection of SNP markers useful in admixture mapping (2009, result): “The few 100% informative SNPs for ancestry in these findings are consistent with prior studies [33,34], showing that most DNA variation is shared among human populations.”
