The Geographical Distribution of Lactose Tolerance-Associated Alleles 13910T and 13915G Is Strongly Linked to Male Founder Events in Eurasia.

American journal of human biology : the official journal of the Human Biology Council - 1 May 2026

Grasgruber Pavel

Abstract excerpt

Lactose tolerance (lactase persistence) represents a very progressive human adaptation, the origins of which remain incompletely understood. This study aims to examine the geographical distribution of the two alleles associated with lactose tolerance in Eurasia (13910*T and 13915*G) in relation to the main Y haplogroups and autosomal ancestry components. Data on the frequency of the 13910*T allele were collected...
