Y-chromosomal diversity in the population of Guinea-Bissau: a multiethnic perspective.

BMC evolutionary biology - 27 Jul 2007

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The geographic and ethnolinguistic differentiation of many African Y-chromosomal lineages provides an opportunity to evaluate human migration episodes and admixture processes, in a pan-continental context. The analysis of the paternal genetic structure of Equatorial West Africans carried out to date leaves their origins and relationships unclear, and raises questions about the existence of major...
