Abstract excerpt

Systematic nonrandom mating in populations results in genetic stratification and is predominantly caused by geographic separation, providing the opportunity to infer individuals' birthplace from genetic data. Such inference has been demonstrated for individuals' country of birth, but here we use data from the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 (NFBC1966) to investigate the characteristics of genetic structure...
