Thanks decimon....genetically more diverse than people of European descent, despite previous assumptions that Ashkenazi Jews have been an isolated population. In addition, analyses of disease-related genes of higher prevalence in the Ashkenazi Jewish population indicate that only a minority of traits show signs of positive selection, suggesting that most have arisen through random genetic drift... The researchers were able to estimate that between 35 and 55 percent of the modern Ashkenazi genome comes from European descent... The two strongest differences between the Ashkenazi and European populations were on chromosome 2 and 12.To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list. |
