RESULTS 9 11 20 22 12 10 12 14 16 14 FOUNDER BANTU HAPLOTYPE Thomas et al.(2000) DYS 391 DYS 390 DYS 393 DYS 392 DYS 19 13 10 21 11 15 Pereira et al.(2002) described three one-step neighbour haplotypes High frequencies of founder Bantu haplotype and its one-step neighbours in all Bantu populations and identified 3 new ones. Founder Bantu haplotype in 2 pygmy samples and a one-step neighbour in one pygmy sample.

  7. RESULTS POPULATION GENETIC RELATIONHIPS Multidimensional Scaling Plots of RST genetic distances Stress 0.11

  8. RESULTS Stress 0.08 POPULATION GENETIC RELATIONHIPS Multidimensional Scaling Plots of RST genetic distances

  9. RESULTS POPULATION STRUCTURE

  10. RESULTS PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS Phylogenetic network of Y-chromosome haplotypes carrying the allele 13.2 of DYS 385 Estimated date of appearance ~5,500 +/- 1,300 years ago.

  11. CONCLUSIONS Bantu populations from Central Africa are very homogeneous, whilst Pygmy populations seem to be quite diverse. Bantu populations are statistically different from Pygmy populations Evidence of possible admixture events between Pygmy and Bantu populations, pointing towards a Bantu-to-Pygmy flow of paternal lineages No evidence of the Fang population or any of the Bantu populations in our sample set having an origin other than Bantu

  12. FUTURE WORK FUTURE WORK Define genetic diversity present at Y-SNP level 48 Y-SNP multiplex reaction
