Dispersal ghosts in Oceania

Article Abstract:

The understanding of human phenotypes in the Pacific with the help of anthropological genetics is discussed. The indeterminate or unpredictable changes that lead to phenotype and genotype effects in human dispersal are unique selective incidents, unique hybridization events, unique reductions in number, swamping by mass migration and mutational drive.

Duffy blood group genotyping in French Basques using polymerase chain reaction with allele-specific primers (PCR-ASP)

Article Abstract:

Duffy, a blood group antigen, can be used to represent models for population genetic studies. With the help of a polymerase chain reaction, the distribution of Duffy blood group was identified in a sample survey in the French Basque country.
