Siberian genetic diversity reveals complex origins of the Samoyedic ‐speaking populations
ConclusionsAutosomal SNP and Y ‐chromosome data demonstrate that Samoyedic populations differ significantly in their genetic composition. Genetic relationship is observed only between Forest and Tundra Nentsi. Selkups are affiliated with the Kets from the Yenisey River, while the Nganasans are separated from their linguistic ne ighbors, showing closer affinities with the Evenks and Yukagirs.
