Extreme mtDNA homogeneity in continental Asian populations.
Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation in continental Asia has not been well‐studied. Here, we report mtDNA HV1 sequences for 84 Xi'an and 82 Changsha Han Chinese, 89 Honshu Japanese, and 35 Vietnamese. Comparison of these sequences with other Asian mtDNA sequences reveals high variability within populations, but extremely low differentiation among Asian populations. Correlations between genetic distance and geographic distance, based on mtDNA and Y chromosome variation, indicate a higher migration rate in females than in males. This may reflect patrilocality, as suggested previously, but another plausible hypothesis is that the demographic expansion associated with the spread of agriculture in Asia may be responsible for the extreme genetic homogeneity in Asia.

“Most studies converge towards the notion that among populations, women are genetically less structured than men.”

In the citing paper
“A large number of studies have found that the level of differentiation was greater for the Y chromosome than for mtDNA, both at a global [3] and a local scale [4]–[11], for a review see [12].”

In the citing paper
“Our results, based on the X chromosome and the autosomes, also confirm previous analyses based on the mtDNA and the NRY, showing that men are genetically more structured than women in other patrilocal populations [3]–[10], [14]–[17]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
