European population genetic substructure: further definition of ancestry informative markers for distinguishing among diverse European ethnic groups.

The definition of European population genetic substructure and its application to understanding complex phenotypes is becoming increasingly important. In the current study using over 4,000 subjects genotyped for 300,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), we provide further insight into relationships among European population groups and identify sets of SNP ancestry informative markers (AIM...

Application of Ancestry Informative Markers to Association Studies in European Americans

Recently, whole genome association (WGA) studies have accelerated progress in the search for genetic variations underlying the inheritance of complex genetic diseases. Although population differences in allele frequencies are usually small, these studies have demonstrated the importance of accounting for population differences in order to reduce false positive associations. Even within a contin...

Analysis and Application of European Genetic Substructure Using 300 K SNP Information

European population genetic substructure was examined in a diverse set of >1,000 individuals of European descent, each genotyped with >300 K SNPs. Both STRUCTURE and principal component analyses (PCA) showed the largest division/principal component (PC) differentiated northern from southern European ancestry. A second PC further separated Italian, Spanish, and Greek individuals from those of As...

Genetic Diversity of Iranian and Some of European Grapesrevealed by Microsatellite Markers

In order to characterize Iranian grape (Vitis vinifera L.) germplasm, 136 genotypes were collected from five grape growing regions (Azarbaijan, Qazvin, Kordestan, Khorasan and Fars) and genotyped along with 36 European cultivars using 9 sequence tagged microsatellite sites (STMS) markers. The used set of markers could distinguish all 172 genotypes under study. Altogether 84 polymorphic alleles ...

European Population Substructure: Clustering of Northern and Southern Populations

Using a genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel, we observed population structure in a diverse group of Europeans and European Americans. Under a variety of conditions and tests, there is a consistent and reproducible distinction between "northern" and "southern" European population groups: most individual participants with southern European ancestry (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese...
