Abstract The distribution of identical and similar (phylogenetically
related) types of hypervariable segment 1 (HVS1) of the mitochondrial
DNA (mtDNA) was studied in human populations belonging to three Slavonic
groups and nine ethnogeographic groups of Eurasia (total sample size
2772 people). The results testified to a common origin of West, South,
and East Slavs and revealed a central place of West Slavs among all
Slavonic ethnic groups. Mixing was shown to play a substantial role in
the formation of specific features of all three Slavonic gene pools. The
mitochondrial gene pools of the Slavonic ethnic groups proved to
preserve features suggesting a common ancestor for these and South
European populations (especially those of the Balkan Peninsula).
Notes:
This is an analysis based on other published data. Mitomap, mtDNA Concordance, and Genbank, were used.
