Immunoglobulin (GM and KM) allotypes and relation to population history in native peoples of British Columbia: Haida and Bella Coola
Abstract Differences in the frequencies of GM haplotypes among native peoples of the Americas support the hypothesis that there were three distinct waves of migration from northeast Asia into the Americas: Paleo‐Indian, Na‐Dene, and Inuit (Eskimo)‐Aleut (Salzano and Steinberg: Am. J. Hum. Genet. 17...
