Abstract: Alu elements, the largest family of interspersed repeats, mobilize throughout the genomes of primates by retroposition. Alu are present in humans in an excess of 500 000 copies per haploid genome. Since some of the insertion alleles have not reached fixation, they remain polymorphic and can be used as biallelic DNA marker systems in investigations of human evolution. In this study, six polymorphic Alu insertional (PAI) loci were used as genetic markers. These markers are thought to be selectively neutral. The … Show more

“…African populations appear completely distinct from the other populations. Similar results were obtained in previous studies using SNP loci, Alu insertion sites and D1S80 allele frequencies [86][87][88][89]. In these studies, the East Asian populations appear to be more distant from South Asian, European and Admixed American populations.…”

“…Multiple studies have used allele frequencies for inferring human population structure [86][87][88]. We used the MAFs and pairwise LD measures (r 2 and D') of 159 drug response-related SNPs for multivariate analysis using PCA, PLS-DA and hierarchical clustering (Figs 3 and 4).…”

“…37 (DYS19, DYS389 I, DYS389 II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, and DYS393) for R1a1 and six loci (DYS389 I, DYS389 II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, and DYS393) for N1c1-and N1b-derived samples given the limited number of loci reported for the previously published reference populations (Supplementary Table 1). Haplotype expansion times were defined using the programs NETWORK 4.2.00 and BATWING, assuming an average Y-STR mutation rate of 6.9 Â 10…”

“…The neighbour joining tree was constructed based on the DA matrix (Saitou and Nei, 1987). In order to determine the population clustering of the populations studied, principal coordinate analysis was carried out using available data on world populations (Stoneking et al, 1997;Majumder et al, 1999;Mukherjee et al, 2000;Nasidze et al, 2001;Antunez-de-Mayolo et al, 2002;Vishwanathan et al, 2003;Comas et al, 2004;Saraswathy et al, 2008).…”
