Description:
We sequenced the genome of a Late Pleistocene hominin (MZR), dated ~14.0 thousand years ago from Red Deer Cave in southwest China, which was previously reported to possess mosaic features of modern and archaic hominins. MZR is the first Late Pleistocene genome from southern East Asia. Our results indicate that MZR is a modern human who represents an early diversified lineage in East Asia. MZR is identified as an extinct basal lineage of the mitochondrial M9 haplogroup, reflecting a rich matrilineal diversity in southern East Asia during the Late Pleistocene. Combined with the published data, we detected genetic stratification in ancient southern populations of East/Southeast Asia and some degree of south-vs-north divergence during the Late Pleistocene, and MZR was identified as a southern East Asian
