Multilocus genotypes, a tree of individuals, and human evolutionary history.

American journal of human genetics - 1 Sept 1997

Mountain J L, Cavalli-Sforza L L

Abstract excerpt

Our goal is to infer, from human genetic data, general patterns as well as details of human evolutionary history. Here we present the results of an analysis of genetic data at the level of the individual. A tree relating 144 individuals from 12 human groups of Africa, Asia, Europe, and Oceania, inferred from an average of 75 DNA polymorphisms/individual, is remarkable in that most individuals cluster with other...
