[QUOTE]Originally posted by Swenet: [QB] ^Indeed, they were autosomal. Additionally, Omran et al 2008 were perfectly able to cluster modern Egyptians with Middle Easterners, and away from Africans, using the same set of STR markers, and 7 additional ones (15 in total). If the Pharaonic alleles were the same as that of modern Egyptians, one would expect to see the same picture we get from Omran et al, who, again, used the same markers, among others. [IMG]http://download.journals.elsevierhealth.com/images/journalimages/1872-4973/PIIS1872497308000859.gr2.lrg.jpg[/IMG] SSA = Africans, UEG = [i]modern[/i] Upper Egyptians. The difference between Omran et al, and DNA tribes' results is obviously due to some of the Pharaonic alleles, which DNA Tribes - along with several ES posters - has confirmed to be African in origin. These alleles are rare among modern Egyptians. This too, has been confirmed. Therefore, anyone who has issues with DNA Tribes' methods, where this specific digest, and/or amount of the used STRs are concerned, who ignores the alleles themselves, is in denial. The origin of the combined Pharaonic alleles (i.e., the STR profile) need to be shown to be non-African, before supposed flaws are identified elsewhere. Only then will I lend credence to some of the complaints. [/QB][/QUOTE]
