“…Using the results, the haplotypes was classified into 82 haplotypes, of which 72 were observed only once and 10 that were observed in 28 multiple individuals. The result, as shown in Table 3 German [21] Argentine [22] Sample size (n) Nucleotide variations in C-stretch at position 16,193 in HVR I All the types of the HVR I variable sequences from position 16,180 to position 16,193 in 100 Thai individuals were analysed and compared with the Anderson sequence and rCRS. According to both the reference sequences, some homopolymeric sequences were observed in some individuals in the control region between position 16,180 and position 16,193 and the C-continuous stretch 6,16 .…”

“…All measurements were generated using Arlequin v3.1 [36]. Sequence data from the Swedish population were also compared with corresponding data from the geographically closely located populations in Germany [37], Finland [31], and Norway [38]. For these analyses, Φ ST values were computed based on HVI and HVII data for the Swedish/German/Finnish comparison while HVI data were used for the Swedish/Norwegian comparison.…”

Homogeneity in mitochondrial DNA control region sequences in Swedish subpopulations

In order to promote mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) testing in Sweden we have typed 296 Swedish males, which will serve as a Swedish mtDNA frequency database. The tested males were taken from seven geographically different regions representing the contemporary Swedish population. The complete mtDNA control region was typed and the Swedish population was shown to have high haplotype diversity with a random match probability of 0.5%. Almost 47% of the tested samples belonged to haplogroup H and further haplogroup comparison with worldwide populations clustered the Swedish mtDNA data together with other European populations. AMOVA analysis of the seven Swedish subregions displayed no significant maternal substructure in Sweden (F (ST) = 0.002). Our conclusion from this study is that the typed Swedish individuals serve as good representatives for a Swedish forensic mtDNA database. Some caution should, however, be taken for individuals from the northernmost part of Sweden (provinces of Norrbotten and Lapland) due to specific demographic conditions. Furthermore, our analysis of a small sample set of a Swedish Saami population confirmed earlier findings that the Swedish Saami population is an outlier among European populations.

“…The same web site, which includes information of recent contributions to the mitochondrial DNA phylogeny [21][22][23], was consulted to refine the classification of some haplogroups, notably those belonging to lineages A2, A2a, B2, B4b, C1a, C1b and D1. Finally, we compared the haplogroup frequencies of European-specific clades via an exact chi-square test by the Monte Carlo method using previously published data from Portugal [24], Germany [25], and Italy [26].…”

Mitochondrial DNA diversity in a population from Santa Catarina (Brazil): predominance of the European input

et al. 2010

The state of Santa Catarina (Brazil) is known to have represented a cultural crossroads in South America due to several historic migrations mainly from Europe and Africa. We set out to scrutinize whether the genetic imprint of these migrations could be traced through analysis of the matrilineal gene pool of the Catarinenses. The entire control region of the mitochondrial DNA was studied in 80 healthy and maternally unrelated individuals. The analysis of haplogroup distribution revealed that this population is extremely heterogeneous, showing the coexistence of matrilineal lineages with three different phylogeographic origins. European lineages are the most frequent due mainly to the impact of relatively recent migratory waves from Europe. In spite of this, Native American lineages and African lineages incorporated with the slave trade are also present in noticeable proportions. The strikingly high variability generated by intense gene flow is mirrored in a high sequence diversity (0.9930) and power of discrimination (0.9806). Thus, analysis of the entire mitochondrial DNA control region emerges as a valuable tool for forensic genetic purposes in this highly admixed population, an attribute common to several present-day Latin American populations.
