Revisiting the African mtDNA Landscape: A Continental Update from Complete Mitochondrial Genomes

2025-04-07

Abstract excerpt

<h4> Abstract </h4> Africa harbors the richest diversity of mitochondrial DNA lineages, reflecting its central role in human evolutionary history. Early studies of mtDNA variation provided the first genetic evidence for the African origin of modern humans. With complete mitochondrial genome sequencing, we can now reconstruct maternal lineages with high resolution, yet large parts of the continent remain underrep...
