Human biology - 1 Dec 1991

Aguiar G F

Abstract excerpt

The influence of recent ethnohistorical factors on the microevolution of South American Indians has not been adequately evaluated by population geneticists. This makes difficult a reasonable interpretation of the present genetic structure of these groups.
