“…The distribution of phenotypic, biochemical and molecular-genetic markers was investigated in geographically and ethnically defined populations (Hadziselimovic 1981;Kapur et al 2003;Marjanovic et al 2004;2005a, b, 2006aPojskic 2005;Pojskic et al 2005). The results showed no statistically significant genetic difference among the populations or geographical regions of Bosnia and Herzegovina except for Y-chromosome E and J haplogroups and the most frequent I-P37 sub-haplogroup.…”

Being a crossroad of many ancient and recent historical migrations, Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H) represents unique spot of multicultural and social diversity. The main aim of this study was to assess genetic structure of three local populations of mountain area from central part of B&H using mtDNA HVS-1 as an informative marker for population genetics studies. A 444 bp HVS-1 segment of control region of mtDNA extracted from buccal swabs was PCR amplified and sequenced. Haplotype and nucleotide diversity, average number of nucleotide differences, AMOVA and pairwise FST based on mtDNA haplotype and haplogroup frequencies were calculated. NJ tree was constructed based on pairwise FST results. Tajima?s D was calculated to evaluate population demographic status.

The post-war period (1996 to presence) in the Western Balkans is colored by a kind of competition among (peudo)scientists and self-proclaimed experts in search for the deepest roots of a particular ethnic group. General conclusions have been reached based of the distribution of a single or only few genetic markers, with no reference to the specific pheno-genotype system studied. The conclusions were all biased by earlier misconceptions and myths about the successive colonization of the Balkans and the inter-genetic relationships among regional populations. In this paper we elaborate methodology and limitations and misconceptions that arise from unsubstantiated use thereof.
