RESUMO
The D1S80 locus in 122 individuals from Maracaibo, Venezuela, was studied to verify the genetic relationship of this sample with 32 other reported world populations derived from different ethnic groups. All analyses reveal that the Venezuelan sample has a main European genetic contribution, followed by contribution from Amerindians, and a small contribution of Africans. The population of Maracaibo has a high level of heterozygosity, as expected for populations with an important level of recent admixture. Am. J. Hum. Biol. 12:616-622, 2000.
