Radical AnthropologyWell interesting, <a href="https://c.im/tags/matrilocality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#matrilocality</a> of the Durotriges people:'In southern Britain, the Late Iron Age Durotriges tribe often buried women with substantial grave goods. Here we analyse 57 ancient genomes from Durotrigian burial sites and find an extended kin group centred around a single maternal lineage, with unrelated (presumably inward migrating) burials being predominantly male. Such a matrilocal pattern is undescribed in European prehistory, but when we compare mitochondrial haplotype variation among European archaeological sites spanning six millennia, British Iron Age cemeteries stand out as having marked reductions in diversity'<a href="https://c.im/tags/archaeology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#archaeology</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/IronAge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#IronAge</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/kinship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#kinship</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/genome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#genome</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/mtDNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mtDNA</a><a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08409-6" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-08409-6</a>

Angus DavisonNew 🐌 paper alert! We showed that snails with v. few mtDNA copies per nuclear genome (<10) have a v. high rate of heteroplasmy; heteroplasmy is inherited through the germline, albeit with selection against synonymous mutations. We also found that some mtDNA genomes have tRNAs that are repeated up to 24 times! <a href="https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-024-10505-w" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-024-10505-w</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/PaperThemeTune" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PaperThemeTune</a> "12XU" by Wire <a href="https://youtu.be/jOjCSLMZPok" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/jOjCSLMZPok</a> (mainly because I just rediscovered it 😄) <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/snails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#snails</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/mtDNA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mtDNA</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/genomics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#genomics</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/heteroplasmy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#heteroplasmy</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/cepaea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cepaea</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/wgs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#wgs</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/12XU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#12XU</a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/wire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#wire</a>

Haplogroup News :autistic: :ace: :n95: :p_pride:The mitochondrial DNA HVI and HVII sequences and haplogroup distribution in a population sample from Vietnam Background: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) analysis has been used in forensics and requires well-established population databases for statistical interpretations. However, high-quality mtDNA data from Vietnamese population samples have been limited. Aim: To examine the mtDNA sequences and haplogroup compositions of a Vietnamese population to provide an mtDNA dataset that can further be used to construct a Vietnamese-specific reference database. Subjects and methods: A total of 173 Vietnamese individuals were analysed for two hypervariable regions (HVI and HVII) of mtDNA. Forensic parameters were calculated and haplogroup assignment was performed based on the resulting mtDNA haplotypes. Genetic relationships between the Vietnamese and other Asian populations were investigated through principal component analysis (PCA) and pairwise Fst. Results: The Vietnamese population sample consisted of 145 different haplotypes with a random match probability of 0.96%, a power of discrimination of 0.9904, and a haplotype diversity of 0.9962. The samples were assigned to 83 haplogroups that were commonly reported in Asia. PCA and pairwise Fst revealed close relationships of the Vietnamese population to other Asian populations, especially to populations in proximity. Conclusion: The results from this study can contribute to the current genetic information content as a supplementary mtDNA reference dataset for forensic investigations and phylogenetic research. <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03014460.2022.2152488" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/03014460.2022.2152488</a> <a href="https://genealogy.social/tags/mtDNA" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mtDNA</a> <a href="https://genealogy.social/tags/PopulationGenetics" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PopulationGenetics</a> <a href="https://genealogy.social/tags/ForensicGenomics" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ForensicGenomics</a> <a href="https://genealogy.social/tags/Haplogroup" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Haplogroup</a> <a href="https://genealogy.social/tags/Haplotype" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Haplotype</a>
