Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-Hispanic Mesoamerican demography approximates the present-day ancestry of Mestizos throughout the territory of Mexico.
Rodrigo Rubi-Castellanos,Gabriela Martínez-Cortés,José Francisco Muñoz-Valle,Antonio González-Martín,Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Manuel Anaya-Palafox,Héctor Rangel-Villalobos +6 more
TL;DR: STRUCTURE results and admixture estimations by means of LEADMIX software in Mestizo populations demonstrated genetic heterogeneity or asymmetric admixture throughout Mexico, displaying an increasing North-to-South gradient of Amerindian ancestry, and vice versa regarding the European component.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of nonpaternity in the Mexican population of Nuevo Leon: a validation study with blood group markers.
Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Sara A. Barton,Luisa F. Marty-Gonzalez,Fernando Rivas,Ranajit Chakraborty +4 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that even though DNA markers are more informative, the probabilistic approach developed here would still be needed to estimate the true rate of nonpaternity in a population or to evaluate the precision of detecting true fathers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic admixture in three Mexican Mestizo populations based on D1S80 and HLA-DQA1 loci.

TL;DR: DNA markers, such as D1S80 and HLA‐DQA1, are useful for examining genetic homogeneity/heterogeneity across Mestizo populations of Mexico, and the inverse relationship of the proportion of gene diversity due to population differences to within population gene diversity is consistent with theoretical predictions, supporting the use of these markers for population genetics studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maximum likelihood estimates of admixture in northeastern Mexico using 13 short tandem repeat loci
Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Bruce Budowle,Li Jin,Li Jin,Sara A. Barton,Ranjan Deka,Ranajit Chakraborty,Ranajit Chakraborty +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provided allelic distributions of the tetrameric short tandem repeat (STR) polymorphisms in 143 Mestizos from Northeastern Mexico and compared them with D1S80 and HLA-DQA1 (n = 103).
Journal ArticleDOI
Micronuclei in cervical smears and peripheral blood lymphocytes from women with and without cervical uterine cancer.
Carlos H. Leal-Garza,Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Ricardo M. Cerda-Flores,Elisamarı́a Leal-Elizondo,Elisamarı́a Leal-Elizondo,Elva I. Cortés-Gutiérrez,Elva I. Cortés-Gutiérrez +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that MN are a useful biomarker of cancer risk and a positive linear trend between the MN frequency and increased cervical cancer risk is found.
