Surname versus gene structure of a small isolate.

Annals of human genetics - 1 Jan 1990

Presciuttini S, Paoli G, Franceschi M

Abstract excerpt

A hierarchical partition of the Wright coefficient of inbreeding (F) is shown for an isolated population (about 2000 inhabitants) from a mountainous region of Tuscany (Italy) with regard to both surnames and genes. At total population level surname variation proves substantially consistent with the observed genetic differentiation of the isolate. Analysis of parental isonymy reveals that the population is...
