Comparing linguistic and genetic relationships among east asian populations: a study of the Rh and GM polymorphisms
Résumé
Compares the RH and GM variation in East Asia against three competing linguistic phylogenies, i.e. Sagart's hypothesis of a main East-Asian macrophylum, a combination of the greater Austric and Sino-Caucasian hypotheses, and a null hypothesis, assuming no genetic relationships between the main East Asian phyla. The authors conclude that the data do not yet permit us to discriminate between the three hypotheses.
