Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mongolian populations are widely distributed geographically, showing abundant ethnic diversity with geographic and tribal differences. AIM: To infer the genetic substructure, admixture and ancient genetic sources of Mongolians together with Kazakhs. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We genotyped more than 690,000 genome-wide SNPs from 33 Mongolian and Chinese Kazakh individuals and compared these with both...
