“…Two of F haplogroup, F1a1a and F3a1, are displayed in all three ethnicities. Previously reported in the Chinese Miao (Hmong) (Le et al, 2019) and French Guianese Hmong (Brucato et al, 2012), F3a1 also occurs at a high frequency in our Pathen (13.89%) (Brucato et al, 2012;Le et al, 2019). On the other hand, F1a1a, first discovered in HM East Asians (Wen et al, 2005) and later described in Hmong French Guianese (Brucato et al, 2012), is most prevalent in Dao (16.28%).…”

Vietnam is the homeland of 54 different ethnicities that belong to 5 major language families of the world, including Austroasiatic, Tai-Kadai, Hmong-Mien, Sino-Tibetan and Austronesian. Hmong-Mien, an ethnolinguistic family, presumably stemmed from Southern China and later spread to the Southeast Asia region. In this study, we analyzed the mitochondrial DNA sequences taken from 120 males belonging Hmong-Mien (HM) language family in Vietnam: Dao, Hmong, and Pathen, revealing 352 unique variants. Dao has the most number of polymorphisms (230 unique SNPs occurring 1469 times), followed by Hmong (181 unique SNPs occurring 1367 times) and Pathen (159 SNPs occurring 1243 times). Genetic variations within each population and among Hmong-Mien speakers were further measured by computations of haplotype diversity (H), nucleotide diversity (π) and fixation index (FST). There are nine major haplogroups (A, B, C, D, F, G, M, N9, and R) detected, with F and B making up over half of each population (Hmong: 56.09% (23/41), Pathen: 58.33% (21/36), Dao: 62.79% (27/43)). Haplotype classification was further divided into 30 haplogroups, of which 80% of them were specific to a single minority. Dao remained the most genetically diverse (H=0.957), while Pathen was the most homogeneous population (H=0.900). In terms of genetic distance, Dao and Hmong were more distinguished from each other, while Hmong and Pathen were more related. Complete mtDNA sequences of Viet HM speakers increased the mtDNA depository, improving the understanding of the genetic structure underlying this language family.

Background Even though the Buyei are a recognised ethnic group in southwestern China, there hasn’t been much work done on forensic population genetics, notably using mitochondrial DNA. The sequences and haplogroups of mitochondrial DNA control regions of the Buyei peoples were studied to provide support for the establishment of a reference database for forensic DNA analysis in East Asia. Methods and results The mitochondrial DNA control region sequences of 200 Buyei individuals in Guizhou were investigated. The haplotype frequencies and haplogroup distribution of the Buyei nationality in Guizhou were calculated. At the same time, the paired Fst values of the study population and other populations around the world were computed, to explore their genetic polymorphism and population relationship. A total of 179 haplotypes were detected in the Buyei population, with frequencies of 0.005–0.015. All haplotypes were assigned to 89 different haplogroups. The haplotype diversity and random matching probability were 0.999283 and 0.0063, respectively. The paired Fst genetic distances and correlation p-values among the 54 populations revealed that the Guizhou Buyei was most closely related to the Henan Han and the Guizhou Miao, and closer to the Hazara population in Pakistan and the Chiang Mai population. Conclusions The study of mitochondrial DNA based on the maternal genetic structure of the Buyei nationality in Guizhou will benefit the establishment of an East Asian forensic DNA reference database and provide a reference for anthropological research in the future.
