Global genetic variation at nine short tandem repeat loci and implications on forensic genetics
(European Journal of Human Genetics (2003) 11, 39 – 49, 2003-01)
We have studied genetic variation at nine autosomal short tandem repeat loci in 20 globally distributed
human populations defined by geographic and ethnic origins, viz., African, Caucasian, Asian, Native
American and ...

Genetic Diversification and Dispersal of Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott)
(2016-06-17)
Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is widely distributed in tropical and sub-tropical areas. However, its origin, diversification and dispersal remain unclear. While taro genetic diversity has been documented at the ...
Migration and Genetic Infrastructure of the Central American Guaymi and Their Affinities With Other Tribal Groups
(American Journal of Phisical Antropology: 58 p.201-214, 1982-06)
New genetic data on 40 red cell enzymes, antigenic blood groups, and serum proteins representing 42 separate loci, are reported for two Guaymi communities in Southeastern Costa Rica. These two settlements, Limoncito and ...
Microevolution of the Chibcha-speaking peoples of Lower Central America: rare genes in an Amerindian complex
(1992)
Models are developed for the survival, history, and spread of variant alleles, in order to consider what can, and what cannot, be inferred from this type of data. The high variances of the processes involved, and questions ...
Microevolution in lower Central America: Genetic characterization of the Chibcha-speaking groups of Costa Rica and Panama, and a consensus taxonomy based on genetic and linguistic affinity
(1990)
There is evidence that Amerindians have continuously occupied the lower Central American Isthmus for as
long as 10,000 years. There remains some doubt about the relationships of these original colonizers to the
resident ...
Genetic variation at twentythree microsatellite loci in sixteen human populations
(1999-08)
We have analysed genetic variation at 23 microsatellite loci in a global sample of 16 ethnically and geographically diverse human populations. On the basis of their ancestral heritage and geographic locations, the studied ...
Genetic diversity in Oryza glumaepatula wild rice populations in Costa Rica and possible gene flow from O. sativa
(2016-04-07)
Wild crop relatives are an important source of genetic diversity for crop improvement. Diversity estimates are generally lacking for many wild crop relatives. The objective of the present study was to analyze how genetic ...
Genetic variation in the Bribri and Cabecar Amerindians from Talamanca, Costa Rica
(1991)
A screening of more than 40 loci was performed in the Bribri and Cabecar Amerindian populations of Talamanca in Southeastern Costa Rica. Some differences were found in the distribution (presence or absence) of the variants ...
Desarrollo y perspectivas de la genética humana en Costa Rica
(Acta Pediátrica Costarricense 12:87-94, 1998)
The development and perspectives of human genetics in Costa Rica are analyzed In relation to research, human resources formation, and social and scientific impact. A review of the scientific literature during the last 25 ...
