Description
Sijia Wang, Cecil Lewis, Mattias Jakobsson and colleagues mapped gene variation in Native American peoples. Their paper appeared in PLoS Genetics in 2007. They studied samples from North, Central and South America. The team asked how these populations differ and relate to each other.
They tested hundreds of gene markers in over four hundred people. The people came from twenty-four Native American populations. The team studied the data together with world samples. Their work traced patterns of diversity across the Americas. Such patterns bear on how people first spread through the continents. The data give a baseline for later health and history studies. Careful sampling across regions was central to the design.
