mtDNA history of the Cayapa Amerinds of Ecuador: detection of additional founding lineages for the Native American populations.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Aug 1999

Rickards O, Martínez-Labarga C, Lum J K, De Stefano G F, Cann R L

Abstract excerpt

mtDNA variation in the Cayapa, an Ecuadorian Amerindian tribe belonging to the Chibcha-Paezan linguistic branch, was analyzed by use of hypervariable control regions I and II along with two linked regions undergoing insertion/deletion mutations. Three major maternal lineage clusters fit into the A, B, and C founding groups first described by Schurr and colleagues in 1990, whereas a fourth lineage, apparently...
