Measures of genetic diversity at the allele level for HLA system in a Mexican admixed population.

<p>O.H.: Observed heterozygosity. E.H.: Expected Heterozygosity. <i>p</i> values <0.05 are considered statistically significative and thus reflect differences between O.H. and E.H. PIC: Polymorphism Information Contents. PD: Power of Discrimination.</p

Principal component analysis (PCA) plot reveals a close genetic relationship of Mexican admixed individuals from Mexico City to Native American groups.

<p>Orange dots refer to African populations. Blue dots represent European samples. Green dots correspond to Asian human groups. Native American populations are represented by purple dots. Red figures are admixed populations from Mexico, with a star locating our Mexico City admixed sample. Proper references of each population group included in the analysis are given in the Materials and Methods section.
