Distribution of the four founding lineage haplotypes in native Americans suggests a single wave of migration for the New World

TL;DR: The distribution of the four founding lineage haplogroups in Native Americans from North, Central, and South America shows a north to south increase in the frequency of lineage B and a North to South decrease in the frequencies of lineage A.
Journal Article

Founder mitochondrial haplotypes in Amerindian populations

TL;DR: The study of RFLP all along the mtDNA and the analysis of nucleotide substitutions in the D-loop region of the mitochondrial genome apparently indicate that most or all full-blooded Amerindians cluster in one of four different mitochondrial haplotypes that are considered to represent the founder maternal lineages of Paleo-Indians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitochondrial DNA polymorphisms in Chilean aboriginal populations: implications for the peopling of the southern cone of the continent.

TL;DR: The mtDNA haplotypes of these three contemporary South American aborigine groups clustered into four main haplogroups, in a way similar to those previously described for other Amerindians, which suggest that the people of Tierra del Fuego are related to tribes from south-central South America.
