Ethnic India: A Genomic View, With Special Reference to Peopling and Structure

TL;DR: A comprehensive statistical analysis of data on 58 DNA markers (mitochondrial [mt], Y-chromosomal, and autosomal) and sequence data of the mtHVS1 from a large number of ethnically diverse populations of India was performed by.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human-specific insertion/deletion polymorphisms in Indian populations and their possible evolutionary implications.

TL;DR: DNA samples from 396 unrelated individuals belonging to 14 ethnic populations of India, inhabiting various geographical locations and occupying various positions in the socio-cultural hierarchy, were analysed in respect of 8 human-specific polymorphic insertion/deletion loci, found to be highly polymorphic in all populations.

Fundamental genomic unity of ethnic india is revealed by analysis of mitochondrial dna

TL;DR: This indicates that Indian populations were founded by a small number of females, possibly arriving on one of the early waves of out-of-Africa migration of modern humans; ethnic differentiationern Chinaoccurred subsequently through demographic expan-sions and geographic dispersal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hemoglobin E Distribution in Ten Endogamous Population Groups of Assam, India

TL;DR: It is speculated that Hb beta E in the Tibeto-Burman populations of Assam arose by an independent mutation which contributed to the high frequencies of HbBetaE in the Northeast Indian populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene differentiation among ten endogamous groups of West Bengal, India.

TL;DR: Three different clusters of groups emerge from the present data, providing support for the anthropologic assertion that in Bengal Proto-Australoid, Caucasoid, and Mongoloid racial elements generally coexist, however, these three components are not uniformly present in all groups.
