TL;DR: These patterns retain a strong signal of expansion from the Near East but also suggest that the demographic history of Europe has been complex and influenced by other major population movements, as well as by linguistic and geographic heterogeneities and the effects of drift.
Journal ArticleDOI
An apportionment of human DNA diversity
TL;DR: By partitioning genetic variances at three hierarchical levels of population subdivision, it is found that differences between members of the same population account for 84.4% of the total, which is in excellent agreement with estimates based on allele frequencies of classic, protein polymorphisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
High carrier frequency of the 35delG deafness mutation in European populations

TL;DR: The 35delG carrier frequency of 1 in 51 in the overall European population clearly indicates that this genetic alteration is a major mutation for autosomal recessive deafness in Caucasoids, which should facilitate diagnosis of congenital deafness and allow early treatment of the affected subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
CYP2D6 worldwide genetic variation shows high frequency of altered activity variants and no continental structure.
TL;DR: The CYP2D6 diversity is far greater within than between populations and groups thereof, null or low-activity variants occur at high frequencies in various areas of the world, and linkage disequilibrium is lowest in Africa and highest in the Americas.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Previously undescribed genetic evidence is presented in contrast with this view based on mtDNA sequences from five Italian aurochsen dated between 7,000 and 17,000 years B.P. and >1,000 modern cattle from 51 breeds to suggest the European cattle may represent a more variable and valuable genetic resource than previously realized.
