Mismatch distributions of mtDNA reveal recent human population expansions.

Human biology - 1 Oct 1994

Abstract excerpt

Although many genetic studies of human evolution have tried to make distinctions between the replacement and the multiregional evolution hypotheses, current methods and data have not resolved the issue. However, new advances in nucleotide divergence theory can complement these investigations with a description of human demographic behavior during the late Middle and Upper Paleolithic (approximately the last...
