Newfoundland and Labrador: A mosaic founder population of an Irish and British diaspora from 300 years ago

2022-04-05

Abstract excerpt

The founder population of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) is a unique genetic resource, in part due to geographic and cultural isolation, where historical records describe a migration of European settlers primarily from Ireland and England to NL in the 18th and 19th centuries. Whilst its historical isolation, and increase prevalence of certain monogenic disorders, have been appreciated, the fine-scale genetic struc...
