In search of geographical patterns in European mitochondrial DNA.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Nov 2002

Richards Martin, Macaulay Vincent, Torroni Antonio, Bandelt Hans-Jürgen

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in Europe and the Near East have suggested that, in contrast with classical markers and the Y chromosome, mtDNA does not exhibit significant geographical structuring. Here, we show that, with a sufficiently large sample size and a better resolved mtDNA tree, clades of mtDNA do indeed exhibit gradients similar to those of other marker systems. However, the more...
