Abstract: | The uniparentally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is in the limelight for the past two decades, in studies relating to
demographic history of mankind and in forensic kinship testing. In this study, human mtDNA hypervariable segments 1, 2, and
3 (HV1, HV2, and HV3) were analyzed in 248 unrelated Malay individuals in Peninsular Malaysia. Combined analyses of HV1, HV2,
and HV3 revealed a total of 180 mtDNA haplotypes with 149 unique haplotypes and 31 haplotypes occurring in more than one individual.
The genetic diversity was estimated to be 99.47%, and the probability of any two individuals sharing the same mtDNA haplotype
was 0.93%. The most frequent mtDNA haplotype (73, 146, 150, 195, 263, 315.1C, 16140, 16182C, 16183C, 16189, 16217, 16274,
and 16335) was shared by 11 (4.44%) individuals. The nucleotide diversity and mean of pair-wise differences were found to
be 0.036063 ± 0.020101 and 12.544022 ± 6.230486, respectively. |
