Most recently, Wilson et al. studied 354 individuals from
8 populatioons deriving from Africa (Bantus, Afro-Caribbeans
and Ethiopians), Europe/Mideast (Norwegians, Ashkenazi
Jews and Armenians), Asia (Chinese) and Pacific Islands
(Papua New Guineans). Their study was based on cluster
analysis using 39 microsatellite loci. Consistent with
previous stu to type this one out so not quite a cut and paste. But summarises
it better than I could.
