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. This genetic overview has implications for the study of human history, forensics, and medicine.Keywords: DNA • genetics • history • demography •population structure 2015-11-27T08:00:00Z text application/pdf https://archium.ateneo.edu/phstudies/vol63/iss4/2 info:doi/10.13185/2244-1638.4104 https://archium.ateneo.edu/context/phstudies/article/4104/viewcontent/6244.pdf Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints Archīum Ateneo |
