Inferring the impact of linguistic boundaries on population differentiation: application to the Afro-Asiatic-Indo-European case.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 Oct 2000

Dupanloup de Ceuninck I, Schneider S, Langaney A, Excoffier L

Abstract excerpt

We present here a quantitative way to assess the impact of language-family boundaries on population differentiation and to evaluate the homogeneity of the genetic processes along these boundaries. Our estimator (delta a) of the impact of the boundary is based on an isolation by distance (IBD) model and measures the added genetic distance between populations located on different sides of the boundary. We compare...
