Assessment of Azorean ancestry by Alu insertion polymorphisms
Knowledge of population ancestry from genetic markers is essential, for example, to understand the history of human migration and to carry out admixture and association studies. Here we assess the genome ancestry of the Azorean population through analysis of six Alu polymorphic sites (TPA-25, ACE, APO, B65, PV92, and D1) in 65 Azoreans and 30 Portuguese unrelated blood donors and compare data for the Y-chromosome and mtDNA. Allele frequencies wer…
Geography of surnames in the Azores
In order to obtain a better understanding of the genetic structure of the Azorean population, a specificity and spatial distribution analysis was performed, based on 2,454 different surnames present in the Azorean telephone directory (2002). We considered as specific surnames those with an absolute frequency ratio equal to or higher than 50%. The results revealed 51 specific surnames in the whole archipelago. The smallest island presents the only…
