Populations17
- Two important objectives are pursued: (1) the generation of reliable frequency estimates for Y-STR haplotypes and Y-SNP haplotypes to be used in the quantitative assessment of matches in forensic and kinship cases and (2) the characterization of male lineages to draw conclusions about the origins and history of human populations. (wikipedia.org)
- By analogy, the term metapopulation is used in forensic genetics to describe a set of geographically dispersed populations with shared ancestry and continuing geneflow. (wikipedia.org)
- In countries like US, Brazil, UK or China which are characterized by strong population substructure national reference databases are often built on basis of a historical concept of ethnic affiliation, e.g. the US population is sub-structured in Caucasian, African, Hispanic, Asian and Native American populations or UK differentiates English, Afro-Caribbean, Indo-Pakistani and Chinese. (wikipedia.org)
- The best evidence supports 21 ancestries that delineate genetic structure of present-day human populations. (nature.com)

- The derived light skin color allele of the SLC24A5 gene, A111T, predominates in populations of Western Eurasian ancestry. (blogspot.com)
- Ancient DNA studies suggest an initial settlement by East Asian-related peoples that was quickly followed by the arrival of Papuan-related populations, leading to a major population turnover. (bvsalud.org)
- We find that ni-Vanuatu derive their East Asian- and Papuan-related ancestry from the same source populations and descend from relatively synchronous, sex-biased admixture events that occurred â ¼1,700-2,300 years ago, indicating a peopling history common to the whole archipelago. (bvsalud.org)
- Furthermore, we detect Polynesian ancestry arriving â ¼600-1,000 years ago to Central and South Vanuatu in both Polynesian-speaking and non-Polynesian-speaking populations. (bvsalud.org)
- We infer that the East Asian ancestors of Pacific populations may have diverged from Taiwanese Indigenous peoples before the Neolithic expansion, which is thought to have started from Taiwan around 5,000 years ago2-4. (bvsalud.org)
- Our analyses reveal marked differences in the proportion and nature of Denisovan heritage among Pacific groups, suggesting that independent interbreeding with highly structured archaic populations occurred. (bvsalud.org)

- However, it was a third, more recent pre-Columbian movement from South America that contributed the majority of the indigenous Caribbean ancestry, nearly replacing the populations that were there before. (familytreedna.com)
Europeans8
- The distributions of C11 and its parental haplotypes make it most likely that these two last steps occurred between the Middle East and the Indian subcontinent, with the A111T mutation occurring after the split between the ancestors of Europeans and East Asians. (blogspot.com)
- In any case, though the People of the Coast are now Africans speaking an African language, the People of the Highlands speak an unimpeachably Asian language, despite constituting the very flower of African-ness for Asians and Europeans over the last two and a half millennia, a distinction they share with the leopard. (languagehat.com)
- But the arrival of Europeans and the resulting global exchange of people, animals, plants, and microbes-what scholars benignly call the Columbian Exchange-bridged more than ten thousand years of geographic separation, inaugurated centuries of violence, unleashed the greatest biological terror the world had ever seen, and revolutionized the history of the world. (americanyawp.com)
- Smedley 1999) As Europeans encountered people from different parts of the world , they speculated about the physical, social, and cultural differences among various human groups. (daynal.org)
- Meltzer 1993) Drawing on Classical sources and upon their own internal interactions - for example, the hostility between the English and Irish was a powerful influence on early thinking about the differences between people (Takaki 1993) - Europeans began to sort themselves and others into groups associated with physical appearance and with deeply ingrained behaviors and capacities. (daynal.org)
- My opinion is that they're at least as important as genome-wide data when tracking the movements across vast space and time of highly patriarchal and patrilineal groups like the ancient Indo-Europeans. (blogspot.com)
- OK Oleg, but almost all modern day Europeans, especially those from across Northern and Eastern Europe, do derive a lot of their ancestry from Bronze Age steppe groups closely related to the Yamnaya people of the North Caspian. (blogspot.com)
- For haplogroup R1b, we identified a previously unstudied "eastern" branch, R1b-GG400, found in East Europeans and West Asians and forming a brother clade to the "western" branch R1b-L51 found in West Europeans. (blogspot.com)
Genetically3
- Ancestry data support the grouping of Kwadi-Khoe, Kx'a, and Tuu languages, support the exclusion of Omotic languages from the Afroasiatic language family, and do not support the proposed Dené-Yeniseian language family as a genetically valid grouping. (nature.com)
- Different languages may thus be grouped either genetically or typologically. (maisfl.com)
- As for the English vocabulary, genetically (historically) it belongs to the Germanic or perhaps Teutonic number of languages from the Indo-European linguistic family. (maisfl.com)
Genome-wide3
- In fact, even if analyses based on high density genome-wide data suggest that Indians don't harbor any genome-wide European ancestry, we'd still have to accept the likelihood of gene flow - albeit perhaps very indirect gene flow - from the European steppe to India because many Indians belong to R1a1a1b2. (blogspot.com)
- The fact that these Armenian-like, ANE-rich newcomers dampened the genome-wide affinity to ANE-proxy MA-1 on the Russian steppe might look like a contradiction, but not if we remember that the higher the Near Eastern ancestry the lower the genome-wide affinity to MA-1, and also consider that the steppe foragers probably carried a lot more ANE than the newcomers. (blogspot.com)
- This shouldn't be surprising, however, considering the publication earlier this year of the Ice Age Villabruna genome from present-day northeast Italy, which belonged to R1b and, as pointed out by myself, also showed strong genome-wide ties to ancient Siberians (see here ). (blogspot.com)
Steppe2
- steppe , vast grassland, devoid of trees and with little diversity in vegetation, receiving around 25 to 30 cm (10 to 12 inches) of rain per year. (moneyflorida.info)
- Thus, if the Yamnaya males were found to belong to these or upstream markers, this would suggest that they were the paternal ancestors of many Balts, Scandinavians, Slavs and Indo-Iranians, and correlate very nicely with the linguistic and archeological "steppe hypothesis" of Indo-European origins. (blogspot.com)
Correlates1
- In unsupervised analyses, a Sardinian-specific ancestry component correlates with shared drift parameters with both the Neolithic farmers and Paleolithic hunter-gatherers, and is consistent with supervised estimates of ancestry proportions in which the Ogliastra individuals have higher Neolithic farmer and Paleolithic hunter-gatherer ancestries, while individuals from the rest of the island show an infusion of the pastoralist ancestry. (blogspot.com)
Haplotypes2
- The parental haplotypes causing for this mutation are also found in Americas and East Asians. (blogspot.com)
- We found a decreased proportion of European ancestry together with an excess of Native-American ancestry on chromosome 8p23.1 and showed that this is due to haplotypes created by chromosomal inversion events. (bvsalud.org)

(dakarctu.com)
Trace4
- Taken at face value, this means that West Eurasians evolved from a mix of Ancient (pre-Mongoloid) East Asians/Amerindians and another group of Amerindians that left little trace in East Asia. (blogspot.com)
- This is also all to do with the fact that the actual Swahili people really can trace their ancestry in the male line back to Arabs, and really are thoroughly Muslim. (languagehat.com)
- We have a sophisticated understanding of genes and the ability to trace our ancestry over generations. (northwestern.edu)
- Both studies did agree that there was a near complete replacement of an original population with another from South America in the last 1,700 years and that millions of living Caribbean people can still trace some of their ancestry to this migratory wave. (familytreedna.com)

Ethnic groups2
- The lack of the letter 'F' in the pre-1987 Tagalog alphabet (Abakada) caused the letter 'P' to be substituted for 'F' , though the alphabets and/or writing scripts of some non-Tagalog ethnic groups included the letter 'F'. Upon official adoption of the modern, 28-letter Filipino alphabet in 1987, the term Filipino was preferred over Pilipino . (everipedia.org)
- However, often brutal conflicts between ethnic groups have existed throughout history and across the world, and racial prejudice against Africans also exists today in non-colonised countries such as China and Japan. (kss.org.pl)

Chromosome4
- The Y Chromosome Haplotype Reference Database (YHRD) is an open-access, annotated collection of population samples typed for Y chromosomal sequence variants. (wikipedia.org)
- Of course, a Metapopulation concept on basis of "ethnicity" is by no means ideal, fully rational or fully translatable, but simply takes the fact into account that on a global level categories other than "nation" or "geography" far better describe the observed genetic clustering and inhomogeneity of Y chromosome patterns. (wikipedia.org)
- The reasoning in doing so is twofold: first, language is an inherited cultural trait and thus the language phylae often correlate with genetic traits not the least to Y chromosome polymorphisms. (wikipedia.org)
