Genetic affinities of Jewish populations.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Jul 1991

Livshits G, Sokal R R, Kobyliansky E

Abstract excerpt

Genetic relations between various Jewish (J) and non-Jewish (NJ) populations were assessed using two sets of data. The first set contained 12 pairs of matched J and NJ populations from Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa, for which 10 common polymorphic genetic systems (13 loci) were available. The second set included 22 polymorphic genetic systems (26 loci) with various numbers of populations (ranging from...
