Population structure and infectious disease risk in southern Africa.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG - 1 Jun 2017

Abstract excerpt

The KhoeSan populations are the earliest known indigenous inhabitants of southern Africa. The relatively recent expansion of Bantu-speaking agropastoralists, as well as European colonial settlement along the south-west coast, dramatically changed patterns of genetic diversity in a region which had been largely isolated for thousands of years. Owing to this unique history, population structure in southern Africa...
