TL;DR: There has been substantial back-migration into the Near East, there was a founder effect or bottleneck associated with the Last Glacial Maximum, 20,000 years ago, and a way to account for multiple dispersals of common sequence types is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classification of European Mtdnas from an Analysis of Three European Populations
Antonio Torroni,Kirsi Huoponen,Paolo Francalacci,M. Petrozzi,Laura Cornelia Clotilde Morelli,Rosaria Scozzari,Rosaria Scozzari,Domenica Anna Obinu,Marja-Liisa Savontaus,Douglas C. Wallace +9 more
TL;DR: The conclusion that most haplogroups observed in Europe are Caucasoid-specific, and that at least some of them occur at varying frequencies in different Caucasoid populations, is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single, rapid coastal settlement of Asia revealed by analysis of complete mitochondrial genomes.
Vincent Macaulay,Catherine Hill,Alessandro Achilli,Chiara Rengo,Douglas J. Clarke,William J. Meehan,James Blackburn,Ornella Semino,Rosaria Scozzari,Fulvio Cruciani,Adi Taha,Norazila Kassim Shaari,Joseph Maripa Raja,Patimah Ismail,Zafarina Zainuddin,William H Goodwin,David Bulbeck,Hans-Jürgen Bandelt,Stephen Oppenheimer,Antonio Torroni,Martin B. Richards +20 more
TL;DR: It is shown that mitochondrial DNA variation in isolated “relict” populations in southeast Asia supports the view that there was only a single dispersal from Africa, most likely via a southern coastal route, through India and onward into southeast Asia and Australasia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinctive Paleo-Indian Migration Routes from Beringia Marked by Two Rare mtDNA Haplogroups
Ugo A. Perego,Ugo A. Perego,Alessandro Achilli,Alessandro Achilli,Norman Angerhofer,Matteo Accetturo,Maria Pala,Anna Olivieri,Baharak Hooshiar Kashani,Kathleen H. Ritchie,Rosaria Scozzari,Qing-Peng Kong,Qing-Peng Kong,Natalie M. Myres,Antonio Salas,Ornella Semino,Hans-Jürgen Bandelt,Scott R. Woodward,Antonio Torroni +18 more
TL;DR: A dual origin for the first Americans is a striking novelty from the genetic point of view, and it makes plausible a scenario positing that within a rather short period of time, there may have been several entries into the Americas from a dynamically changing Beringian source.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Emerging Tree of West Eurasian mtDNAs: A Synthesis of Control-Region Sequences and RFLPs
Vincent Macaulay,Martin B. Richards,Eileen Hickey,Emilce Vega,Fulvio Cruciani,Valentina Guida,Rosaria Scozzari,Batsheva Bonne-Tamir,Bryan Sykes,Antonio Torroni,Antonio Torroni +10 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the main indigenous North African cluster is a sister group to the most ancient cluster of European mtDNAs, from which it diverged approximately 50,000 years ago.
