We found that the most frequent haplotypes in Chiapas include 12 Native American and one European haplotype. Admixture estimates revealed that the main genetic components in Chiapas are Native American (71.61 ± 0.58 by ML; 53.16 of Native American haplotypes) and European (26.39 ± 5.05 by ML; 25.86 of European haplotypes), and a less prominent African genetic component (2.00 ± 5.20 by ML; 9.77 of African haplotypes). %K HLA, Immunogenetics, Population genetics, Chiapas, Admixture %J Human Immunology %V 81 %N 9 %& 563 %P 563 - 565 %I Elsevier %C New York, N.Y. %@ 0198-8859
