Gene flow across linguistic boundaries in Native North American populations.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 1 Feb 2005

Hunley Keith, Long Jeffrey C

Abstract excerpt

Cultural and linguistic groups are often expected to represent genetic populations. In this article, we tested the hypothesis that the hierarchical classification of languages proposed by J. Greenberg [(1987) Language in the Americas (Stanford Univ. Press, Stanford, CA)] also represents the genetic structure of Native North American populations. The genetic data are mtDNA sequences for 17 populations gleaned from...
