  • Genetic Ancestry Reveals Historical Diversity of Formation Across Three Brazilian Communities of African Descent ( Quilombos ) in Central Brazil

    Open Access•Sabrina Guimarães Paiva, Anna C Rivara et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Human Biology•2026

    Introduction Characterized as relatively isolated communities, many Brazilian quilombos were formed during the period of slavery in Brazil when enslaved persons (most of African descent) ran away or were abandoned by their enslavers. Quilombos in Central Brazil, whose settlement was more recent due to the relative isolation of the region, remain understudied. To address this gap, this study estimated the genetic ancestry of three quilombo communi…

  • Genomic ancestry of rural African‐derived populations from Southeastern Brazil

    Open Access•Lilian Kimura, Elzemar M Ribeiro-Rodrigues et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Human Biology•2013

    OBJECTIVES: xMany Africans were brought to Brazil as slaves. The runaway or abandoned slaves founded isolated communities named quilombos. There are many quilombo remnants in Vale do Ribeira region in the southern part of São Paulo State. The aim of our study was to contribute to understanding the origins of these populations, through admixture studies. METHODS: We genotyped 307 unrelated DNA samples obtained from ten quilombo populations from Va…

  • Male ancestry structure and interethnic admixture in African‐descent communities from the Amazon as revealed by Y‐chromosome Strs

    Open Access•Teresinha de Jesus Brabo Ferreira Palha, Elzemar M Ribeiro-Rodrigues et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Physical…•2011•Citada por: 6•Referências: 31

    Some genetic markers on both the Y chromosome and mtDNA are highly polymorphic and population‐specific in humans, representing useful tools for reconstructing the past history of populations with poor historical records. Such lack of information is usually true in the case of recent African‐descent populations of the New World founded by fugitive slaves throughout the slavery period in the Americas, particularly in Brazil, where those communities…

    The genetic consequences of the social policy of the past in relation to the formation of Afro‐Brazilian societies are interesting and have been studied at various biological levels (classical polymorphisms and the mitochondrial and nuclear levels. These allow the estimation of the contribution of African genes and the participation of other ethnic groups in the formation of these communities. With this objective, uniparental systems of exclusive…

  • Group‐specific component (GC) in curiaú and pacoval, two african‐derived brazilian populations

    Open Access•Silviene Fabiana De Oliveira, Eliane Barbosa Dos Santos et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Human Biology•2001

    The group‐specific component (GC) system is of interest in anthropological genetic studies because the distribution of its subtypes distinguishes among major ethnic groups. The GC system was analyzed in Curiaú and Pacoval, two remnant Quilombo populations (African‐derived populations) from the Brazilian Amazon. There was no significant statistical difference in allelic frequencies between the two populations or between them and three other Africa…

  • Heterogeneity of Y chromosome markers among Brazilian Amerindians

    Open Access•Antonio C R Vallinoto, Izaura Maria Vieira Cayres Vallinoto et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Human Biology•1999

    The allele frequency distribution of DYS19 and DYS199 loci were analyzed in 59 Brazilian Amerindians from five tribes from the Amazon region (Zoé, Awá-Guajá, Urubú-Kaapór, Katuena, and Kayapó, Xikrin of Bacajá village). Three different alleles of the DYS19 microsatellite (182-bp, 186-bp, and 190-bp) were found at average frequencies of 0.08, 0.85, and 0.07, respectively. The DYS199-T allele was identified in 78% of the Amerindians studied (43/55)…
