Mapping human genetic diversity in Asia

Mahmood Ameen Abdulla, +94 more
- 11 Dec 2009 - 
TL;DR: The results suggest that there may have been a single major migration of people into Asia and a subsequent south-to-north migration across the continent, and that genetic ancestry is strongly correlated with linguistic affiliations as well as geography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Philippine Mitochondrial DNA Diversity: A Populated Viaduct between Taiwan and Indonesia?

TL;DR: Analysis of hypervariable segment I sequence variation within individual mtDNA haplogroups indicates a general decrease in the diversity of the most frequent types from the Taiwanese aborigines to the Philippines and Sulawesi, although calculated standard error measures overlap for these populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complete mtDNA genomes of Filipino ethnolinguistic groups: A melting pot of recent and ancient lineages in the Asia-Pacific region

TL;DR: The complete mtDNA genomes of 14 ethnolinguistic groups reveal genetic aspects consistent with the Y-chromosome, namely: diversity and heterogeneity of groups, no support for a simple dichotomy between Negrito and non-Negrito groups, and different genetic affinities with Asia-Pacific groups that are both ancient and recent.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a pentaplex X-chromosomal short tandem repeat typing system and population genetic studies.

TL;DR: Exact tests performed on genotype data from females in the Philippine, German and Thai populations indicated that these groups conform to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, indicating significant variations in allele distributions, particularly at loci DXS101, DXS981 and DXS6789.
