The population history of the Philippines a genetic overview Frederick C. Delfin. 2015. pages [449]-476 illustrations, maps 23 cm text rdacontent unmediated rdamedia volume rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 473-476). This professorial address synthesizes the findings of several studies on the genetics of Philippine population groups and presents them in a manner accessible to nonspecialists. These studies examined different types of DNA (Y-chromosome, mitochondrial, and autosomal) samples contributed by participants in twelve regional centers and nineteen ethnolinguistic groups. The data reveal (a) genetic affinities with different groups in the Asia-Pacific region, (b) genetic signals of ancient demographic events, (c) an ancient genetic history of about 5,000?50,000 years ago, and (d) a complex population genetic structure.
