Prefecture-level population structure of the Japanese based on SNP genotypes of 11,069 individuals.

Journal of human genetics - 1 Apr 2021

Watanabe Yusuke, Isshiki Mariko, Ohashi Jun

Abstract excerpt

We analyzed genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism data of 11,069 Japanese individuals recruited from all 47 prefectures of Japan to clarify their genetic structure. The principal component analysis at the prefectural level enabled us to study the relationship between geographical location and genetic differentiation. The results revealed that the mainland Japanese were not genetically homogeneous, and the...
