Proportioning whole-genome single-nucleotide-polymorphism diversity for the identification of geographic population structure and genetic ancestry.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Apr 2006

Lao Oscar, van Duijn Kate, Kersbergen Paula, de Knijff Peter, Kayser Manfred

Abstract excerpt

The identification of geographic population structure and genetic ancestry on the basis of a minimal set of genetic markers is desirable for a wide range of applications in medical and forensic sciences. However, the absence of sharp discontinuities in the neutral genetic diversity among human populations implies that, in practice, a large number of neutral markers will be required to identify the genetic...
