Lactase persistence and dairy intake in Mapuche and Mestizo populations from southern Chile.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Nov 2014

Fernández Catalina I, Flores Sergio V

Abstract excerpt

Lactase persistence (LP) occurs at a very low frequency in indigenous populations from Latin America, offering an opportunity to understand the relationship between this genetic trait and patterns of dairy consumption. Here, the frequency of LP is analyzed from Mapuche and -an adjacent- mestizo population inhabiting the Araucanía region. In addition to genotyping for LP, participants were surveyed in relation to...
