Subject(s): MtDNA transmission | mutation rate | maternal history In: American Journal of Physical Anthropology 104(2)Summary: Genealogical histories show that the inhabitants of Tristan da Cunha are derived from a known number of founders. Using the transmission of mitochondrial DNA from mother to offspring pairs, we traced the mtDNA types found in 161 extant individuals to five female founders. Although the historical data claimed that two pairs of sisters. We also studied the fidelity of mtDNA transmission in conjunction with the genealogical data.| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
